Detailed voting instructions can be found starting on page 11 of the accompanying management information circular (“Information Circular”).
Virtual Meeting
This year, like last year, in order to mitigate risks to the health and safety of the Company’s Shareholders, communities, employees and other stakeholders – and to avoid the uncertainty of changing local health restrictions – posed by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic the Meeting will be in a virtual-only format, which will be conducted via live webcast. All Shareholders, regardless of geographic location and equity ownership, will have an equal opportunity to participate at the Meeting. Shareholders will not be able to attend the Meeting in person. Registered shareholders and duly appointed proxyholders will be able to attend, participate and vote at the Meeting online at https://Web.lumiagm.com/413104394.

Meeting Materials
This year, the Company is again using notice-and-access delivery to furnish the Notice of Meeting and Information Circular (the “Meeting Materials”) to Shareholders electronically. Therefore, instead of receiving the Meeting Materials by mail, you can view them online under the Company’s profile at www.sedar.com or at https://docs.tsxtrust.com/2234. Requests for paper copies of the Meeting Materials may be made, at no charge, up to one year from the date the Information Circular is filed on SEDAR by calling 1-866-600-5869 or by emailing tsxtis@tmx.com.
The Company believes that this delivery process will expedite Shareholders’ receipt of proxy materials and both lower the costs and reduce the environmental impact of the Meeting.
By order of the Board of Directors

Performance and CEO Compensation Highlights
Tricon’s performance in 2021 was marked by numerous strategic and operating successes.
A key 2021 accomplishment was the listing of our common shares on the NYSE and closing of our initial public offering in the United States, with a concurrent public offering in Canada and private placement. In total, these offerings yielded aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of approximately $570 million. Prior to this, in March 2021, Tricon completed the syndication of its wholly-owned portfolio of 23 U.S. multi-family apartments to two institutional investors. Under the joint venture arrangement, the investors acquired a combined 80% interest in the existing portfolio, with Tricon retaining a 20% interest. The transaction reflected a total portfolio value of $1.331 billion, including in-place debt, and provided Tricon with approximately $425 million of gross proceeds which we used to repay outstanding debt and for general corporate purposes. As a result of these two initiatives, Tricon reduced its

leverage from approximately 55% net debt/assets1 (excluding then-outstanding convertible debentures) to 35% over the course of the year, significantly enhancing its balance sheet flexibility.
Tricon also raised more third-party capital in 2021 than in its previous 32 years of history combined. In addition to the creation of our US multi-family joint venture mentioned above, we expanded our third-party assets under management and associated recurring fee streams with the formation of three other new joint venture arrangements during the year. In May, Tricon formed our “Homebuilder Direct” joint venture arrangement with two leading institutional investors which aims to acquire newly built single-family rental homes, either as scattered homes or recently completed single-family rental communities. The joint venture is funded by a total equity commitment of $450 million with Tricon serving as the asset and property manager. Then, in July, we formed SFR JV-2, a joint venture arrangement with three leading institutional investors which serves as a successor to SFR JV-1, targeting the acquisition of single-family homes via resale channels and existing portfolio acquisitions. Tricon acts as the asset and property manager for the joint venture, which is funded by a total equity commitment of $1.55 billion. Finally, north of the border, Tricon’s new joint venture with the Canada Pension Plan Investment Board was formed in March and is investing in build-to-core multi-family rental projects in the Greater Toronto Area with Tricon serving as the projects’ developer, asset manager and property manager. The joint venture will provide equity capital allowing for the expected development of 2,000-3,000 units at an expected gross development cost of C$1.5 billion.
While reaching (and surpassing) these strategic goals, Tricon also delivered outstanding performance in 2021, benefitting from robust rental housing demand driven by de-urbanization, de-densification and work-from-home trends that have accelerated over the course of the COVID-19 pandemic. Tricon’s single-family rental business, which accounts for 94% of our real estate assets, recorded strong home occupancy of 97.6%, a 360-basis point decrease in same home resident turnover to 19.7%, record net operating income margin of 67.8% and blended rent growth of 8.2% for the same home portfolio. Tricon’s portfolio of managed homes also expanded by 28%, to 29,237 homes. The strong performance of this business, coupled with robust results from our residential developments and private funds and advisory businesses, resulted in a 359% increase in net income from continuing operations in 2021, to $517.1 million, a 35% increase in Core FFO to $152 million and a 12% increase in Core FFO per share to $0.57. Please refer to the Company’s Annual Report for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 for further details. 2
Reflective of our watershed year, the President and Chief Executive Officer’s total direct compensation (in Canadian dollars) increased by 77% in 2021 compared to 2020. This increase is reflective of both the Company’s outstanding operational and financial performance in 2021, as well as the CEO’s strong performance in respect of the ambitious CEO scorecard targets set for 2021. The extent of the increase is also exaggerated by fact that our 2020 executive compensation had been reduced meaningfully from the 2019 fiscal year as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite this, the year-over-year direct CEO compensation increase is consistent with Tricon’s exceptional 2021 total shareholder return (“TSR”) of 72.5%, a return almost three times the 25.1% TSR of the S&P/TSX Index in 2021.

2021 Total Direct Compensation
The Company has structured its executive compensation program to create a high-performance culture by placing a large proportion of executive pay at-risk and deferred over time in order to align the interests of executives with those of long-term Shareholders.
90% of the President and Chief Executive Officer’s total direct compensation for Fiscal 2021 is considered at-risk, and 39% is deferred over time in the form of Deferred Share Units (“DSUs”), Performance Share Units (“PSUs”) and Restricted Shares.

1 Net debt/assets is a non-IFRS ratio. See “Non-IFRS Measures”
2 Core FFO and net operating income margin are non-IFRS measures, and this paragraph also contains supplemental measures of the Company’s performance. See “Non-IFRS Measures”.

Continuous Assessment of Our Compensation Program
2021 was a year of super-charged growth and strategic focus for Tricon and would not have been possible without our dedicated employees and executive leadership. The Compensation, Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee (the “Governance Committee”) is continuously evaluating our compensation program to ensure that the Company is able to attract, retain and motivate a world-class executive team, achieve alignment with Shareholders, and reflect best practices in corporate governance. Some of the more significant recent measures implemented include:
Comprehensive review of our compensation philosophy
Complete redesign of the Annual Incentive Plan
Compensation structure anchored at market median with predetermined variable pay targets
Performance Share Unit Plan with cliff vesting based on annual Adjusted EPS performance over three years
Restricted Share Plan with long-term vesting of awards (the Restricted Shares awarded in 2021 will cliff vest in either 5, 10 or 12 years)
Executive Common Share ownership guidelines
We continue always to pursue opportunities to improve our compensation program and achieve greater Shareholder alignment, and in 2021 the Company implemented a new performance assessment process aimed at reinforcing alignment between our CEO’s compensation and the achievement of annual individual performance targets set by the Board in respect of six key pillars of our success: shareholder value, employees, residents, technology and innovation, ESG, and risk management & governance. An additional pillar identified as critical to Tricon’s performance, operating efficiency, was included in the scorecard targets set by the Governance Committee for 2022. See page 46 for further details.

ABOUT THIS INFORMATION CIRCULAR
Unless otherwise indicated, the information presented in this Information Circular is as of May 10, 2022 and all dollar amounts are expressed in U.S. dollars, which is the presentation currency of the Company’s financial statements. All references to “$”, “USD” or “US$” are to U.S. dollars and all references to “C$” or “CAD” are to Canadian dollars. All references to “Fiscal 2021” refer to the 12-month period ended December 31, 2021. Unless stated otherwise, wherever the value of the Common Shares (or securities deriving their value from Common Shares) is expressed in this Information Circular as of a particular date, that value is calculated using the closing share price of the Common Shares on the TSX as of that date. Unless stated more precisely, values and figures expressed herein have been rounded to the nearest thousand.
In this Information Circular, references to ‘‘Tricon’’, the ‘‘Company’’, ‘‘our’’, “us” or ‘‘we’’ mean Tricon Residential Inc. and its direct and indirect subsidiaries. References to “Common Shares” means the common shares in the capital of the Company, and references to “Shareholders” means the holders of Common Shares.
The Meeting will be held as a completely virtual meeting, which will be conducted via live webcast. Shareholders will not be able to attend the Meeting in person. A summary of the information Shareholders will need to attend the Meeting online is provided herein.
This Information Circular is furnished in connection with the solicitation of proxies by and on behalf of management of the Company for use at the Meeting to be held virtually via live webcast at https://Web.lumiagm.com/413104394 on Wednesday, June 22, 2022 at 10:00 a.m. (Toronto time) or at any postponement or adjournment thereof, for the purposes set forth in the accompanying Notice of Meeting.
A glossary of defined terms used in this Information Circular can be found in Appendix A.
NON-IFRS MEASURES
In addition to reported International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) measures, the Company uses certain non-IFRS financial measures and non-IFRS ratios, some of which may be referred to in this Information Circular, including, but not limited to, net operating income (“NOI”), NOI margin, proportionate same-home NOI and NOI margin, funds from operations (“FFO”), core funds from operations (“Core FFO”), adjusted funds from operations (“AFFO”), Core FFO per share, AFFO per share, Core FFO payout ratio, AFFO payout ratio, as well as certain key indicators of the performance of our businesses which are supplementary financial measures. These measures are commonly used by entities in the real estate industry as useful metrics for measuring performance. We utilize these measures in managing our business, including performance measurement and capital allocation. In addition, certain of these measures are used in measuring compliance with our debt covenants. We believe that providing these performance measures on a supplemental basis is helpful to investors and shareholders in assessing the overall performance of the Company’s business. However, these measures are not recognized under and do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS as issued by the IASB, and are not necessarily comparable to similar measures presented by other publicly traded entities. These measures should be considered as supplemental in nature and not as a substitute for related financial information prepared in accordance with IFRS. Because non-IFRS financial measures, non-IFRS ratios and supplementary financial measures do not have standardized meanings prescribed under IFRS, securities regulations require that such measures be clearly defined, identified, and reconciled to their nearest IFRS measure.
See the Company’s management’s discussion and analysis in respect of the year ended December 31, 2021 (the “MD&A”) available on the SEDAR website at www.sedar.com for a further explanation and reconciliation of non-IFRS measures to the most directly comparable IFRS measure. The Section titled “Non-IFRS Measures”, Section 4, Section 6 and Appendix A of the MD&A are hereby incorporated by reference herein.

To the knowledge of the Directors, there are no persons who beneficially own or exercise control or direction over Common Shares carrying 10% or more of the votes attached to the issued and outstanding Common Shares. However, Blackstone became an insider of the Company in connection with the Blackstone Private Placement and currently owns 240,000 Preferred Units and 6,815,242 Common Shares, representing approximately 11.6% of the outstanding Common Shares (assuming the exchange of its Preferred Units at the Exchange Price) as of May 1, 2022.

The solicitation of proxies for the Meeting will be made using the notice-and-access mechanism in accordance with the provisions of National Instrument 51-102 – Continuous Disclosure Obligations and National Instrument 54-101 – Communication with Beneficial Owners of a Reporting Issuer (“NI 54-101”).

PWC was first appointed as auditor of the Company on January 26, 2010, and has been the auditor of the funds that the Company manages since 1997.

On May 10, 2022, the Board of Directors determined that it is in the best interests of the Company that the Existing Rights Plan be amended and restated with minor administrative amendments reflecting the Company’s new name and be presented to Shareholders for approval. Other than such administrative amendments, there are no substantive changes to the Existing Rights Plan.
At the Meeting, Shareholders will be asked to consider and, if deemed advisable, to pass a resolution (the “Rights Plan Resolution”), with or without variation, to continue and amend and restate the Existing Rights Plan. The full text of the Rights Plan Resolution is attached as Appendix D to this Information Circular. The proposed amendments to the Amended Rights Plan will be made by way of a third amended and restated rights plan (the “Third Amended Rights Plan” or the “Rights Plan”), which will continue in effect only if the Rights Plan Resolution is approved by a majority of the votes cast by Shareholders at the Meeting. If reconfirmed by Shareholders at the Meeting, the Third Amended Rights Plan is required to be reconfirmed again by Shareholders at the 2025 annual meeting of Shareholders.
The Board of Directors believes that the Third Amended Rights Plan remains consistent with the Canadian take-over bid regime and current best practices. Neither the Existing Rights Plan nor the Third Amended Rights Plan was or is intended to prevent a take-over of the Company. Reconfirmation of the Rights Plan is not being sought in response to, or in anticipation of, any pending or threatened take-over bid and the Board is not aware of any third party considering or preparing any proposal to acquire control of the Company.
The persons named in the Form of Proxy, if not expressly directed to the contrary in such Form of Proxy, will vote such proxies in favour of approving the Rights Plan Resolution. A simple majority of the votes cast at the Meeting, whether by proxy or in person, will constitute approval of this matter.

Summary of Rights Plan
Background
This summary of certain material provisions of the Rights Plan is qualified entirely by reference to the full text of the Rights Plan, which is attached as Appendix E to this Information Circular. Capitalized terms used in this summary and not otherwise defined have the meaning ascribed thereto in the Rights Plan in Appendix E. Copies of the Existing Rights Plan and the Second Amended Rights Plan are available upon written request to the Corporate Secretary of the Company, 7 St. Thomas Street, Suite 801, Toronto, Ontario, M5S 2B7, and may also be found on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.
Pursuant to the Rights Plan, the Company has issued one right (a “Right”) for each Common Share that is currently outstanding and will issue one Right for each Common Share issued during the currency of the Rights Plan.
The Rights Plan utilizes the mechanism of the “Permitted Bid” (as described below) to require all potential bidders for the Company to comply with the conditions specified in the Permitted Bid provisions or else be subject to the dilutive features of the Rights Plan. The Rights Plan is designed to make it impractical for any person to acquire more than 20% of the outstanding Common Shares without the approval of the Directors, except pursuant to the Permitted Bid procedures, or pursuant to certain other exempt transactions outlined below.

Separation Time

The Rights will separate and trade separately from the Common Shares after the Separation Time (as defined below). Following the Separation Time, separate certificates evidencing the Rights (“Rights Certificates”) will be provided to shareholders with effect as of the Separation Time and each separate Rights Certificate alone will evidence the Rights. Registration of interests in and transfer of the Rights will be made only through a book entry system administered by CDS Clearing and Depository Services Inc.
The “Separation Time” is the close of business on the 10th Business Day following the earliest of:
(a)the date of the first public announcement made by Tricon or an Acquiring Person (as defined below) that a person has become an Acquiring Person;
(b)the date of the commencement of, or first public announcement in respect of, a take-over bid by any person (an “Offeror”) for the Common Shares;
(c)the date upon which a Permitted Bid ceased to be a Permitted Bid; or
(d)such later date as may be determined by the Board.
If any take-over bid triggering the Separation Time expires or is cancelled, terminated or otherwise withdrawn prior to the Separation Time, the bid shall be deemed, for the purposes of determining the Separation Time, never to have been made.

Exercise Price of Rights

The initial exercise price established under the Rights Plan is C$100 per Common Share. After the Separation Time and prior to the occurrence of a Flip-in Event (as defined below), each Right entitles the registered holder to purchase one Common Share at the exercise price of C$100 per Common Share, subject to certain anti-dilution adjustments and other rights as are set out in the Rights Plan. The terms of the Rights adjust significantly upon the occurrence of a “Flip-in Event”, as described below.

Flip In Event

A “Flip-in Event” is triggered when a person becomes an Acquiring Person. Upon the occurrence of a Flip-in Event, Tricon must take such action as shall be necessary to ensure that each Right (except for Rights beneficially owned by the persons specified below) shall thereafter constitute the right to purchase from Tricon upon exercise thereof in accordance with the terms of the Rights Plan that number of Common Shares having an aggregate market price on the date of the consummation or occurrence of such Flip-in Event equal to twice the exercise price, for an amount in cash equal to the exercise price. By way of example, if at the time of such announcement the exercise price of the Rights is C$100 and the Common Shares have a market price of C$10 per Common Share, the holder of each Right would be entitled to purchase the number of Common Shares that has, in the aggregate, a market price of C$200 (i.e., 20 Common Shares in this example) for a price of C$100; that is, at a 50% discount.

The Rights Plan provides that Rights that are beneficially owned by:


- 16 -
(a)an Acquiring Person, any affiliate or associate of an Acquiring Person, any person acting jointly or in concert with an Acquiring Person, or any affiliate or associate of such Acquiring Person; or
(b)a transferee, direct or indirect, of Rights from any of the foregoing,
shall in certain circumstances become null and void without any further action and any holder of such Rights (including transferees) shall not have any rights whatsoever to exercise such Rights under any provision of the Rights Plan.
Acquiring Person

An “Acquiring Person” is a person who beneficially owns 20% or more of the outstanding Common Shares. An Acquiring Person does not, however, include:

(a)Tricon or any other affiliate controlled by Tricon;

(b)any person who owns, directly or indirectly, 20% or more of the securities of Tricon on closing of its initial public offering (a “Grandfathered Person”), provided, however, that this exemption shall not be, and shall cease to be, applicable to a Grandfathered Person in the event that such Grandfathered Person shall, after closing of the initial public offering, become the owner, directly or indirectly, of an additional 1% of the outstanding Common Shares, other than pursuant to certain exempt transactions described below; or

(c)any person who becomes the beneficial owner of 20% or more of the Common Shares as a result of certain exempt transactions.

Where a Person is deemed to beneficially own the Common Shares issuable under that Person’s Convertible Securities, those Common Shares will be considered to be outstanding for purposes of calculating the number and percentage of Common Shares beneficially owned by that Person.
Exempt transactions include:
(a)specified acquisitions or redemptions of Common Shares;
(b)acquisitions pursuant to a Permitted Bid (which may include a Competing Permitted Bid), as described below; and/or
(c)acquisitions where the acquiror maintains its pro rata ownership interest in the Company.

Permitted Bids and Competing Permitted Bids

A “Permitted Bid” means a bid which is made by an Offeror by means of a take-over bid circular and which also complies with the following additional provisions:
(a)the bid is made to all holders of Common Shares, other than the Offeror, as registered on the books of the Company;
(b)the bid contains, and the take-up and payment for securities tendered or deposited thereunder is subject to, irrevocable and unqualified conditions that (A) no Common Shares shall be taken up or paid for pursuant to the bid prior to the close of business on the date which is not earlier than 105 days following the date of the bid or such shorter period as is permitted under applicable Canadian securities laws and (B) no Common Shares shall be taken up or paid for pursuant to the bid unless, at the date referred to in (A) above, more than 50% of the Common Shares held by Independent Shareholders shall have been deposited or tendered pursuant to the bid and not withdrawn;
(c)the bid contains an irrevocable and unqualified provision that, unless the bid is withdrawn, Common Shares may be deposited pursuant to such bid at any time prior to the close of business on the date of first take-up or payment for Common Shares and that any Common Shares deposited pursuant to the bid may be withdrawn until taken up and paid for; and
(d)the bid contains an irrevocable and unqualified provision that if, on the date on which Common Shares may be taken up or paid for, more than 50% of the Common Shares held by Independent Shareholders shall have been deposited or tendered pursuant to the bid and not withdrawn, the Offeror will make a public announcement of that fact and the bid will remain open for deposits and tenders of Common Shares for not less than 10 days from the date of such public announcement;
provided that if a bid constitutes a Competing Permitted Bid, the term “Permitted Bid” shall also mean the Competing Permitted Bid.

A “Competing Permitted Bid” means a bid that:


- 17 -

(a)is made after a Permitted Bid or another Competing Permitted Bid has been made and prior to the expiry of the Permitted Bid or other Competing Permitted Bid;

(b)satisfies all components of the definition of a Permitted Bid other than the requirements set out in paragraph (b)(A) of such description above; and

(c)contains, and the take-up and payment for securities tendered or deposited is subject to, an irrevocable and unqualified condition that no Common Shares will be taken up or paid for pursuant to the bid prior to the close of business on the last day of the minimum initial deposit period for which the bid must remain open under applicable Canadian securities laws.

Neither a Permitted Bid nor a Competing Permitted Bid is required to be approved by the Board and such bids may be made directly to Shareholders. Acquisitions of Common Shares made pursuant to a Permitted Bid or a Competing Permitted Bid do not give rise to a Flip-in Event.

Redemption and Waiver

The Board, with the consent of the holders of voting securities of the Company, may, at any time prior to the occurrence of a Flip-in Event, elect to redeem all but not less than all of the Rights at a redemption price of C$0.0001 per Right (the “Redemption Price”). Rights will be deemed to immediately be redeemed at the Redemption Price where a person acquires Common Shares pursuant to a Permitted Bid or Competing Permitted Bid. If the Board elects or is deemed to have elected to redeem the Rights, the right to exercise the Rights will terminate and each Right will after redemption be null and void and the only right thereafter of the holders of Rights shall be to receive the Redemption Price.
The Board, with the consent of the holders of voting securities of the Company, may waive application of the Rights Plan to a take-over bid prior to the occurrence of a Flip-in Event that would occur as a result of an acquisition of Common Shares otherwise than pursuant to a take-over bid made by way of a take-over bid circular sent to all holders of voting securities of the Company.
The Board, in its discretion, may waive application of the Rights Plan to a take-over bid prior to the occurrence of a Flip-in Event that would occur as a result of a take-over bid made by way of a take-over bid circular sent to all holders of voting securities of the Company. Once the Board has exercised its discretion to waive application of the Rights Plan in respect of any particular take-over bid and another take-over bid is made, the Board shall be deemed to have waived the application of the Rights Plan to such other take-over bid provided that such other take-over bid is made by way of a formal take-over bid circular to all holders of Common Shares prior to the expiry of the take-over bid in respect of which the waiver has been granted.
Third Amended Rights Plan
As noted above, the Third Amended Rights Plan has been amended and restated with only minor administrative amendments to the Existing Rights Plan in order to reflect the change of the name of the Company to “Tricon Residential Inc.” which occurred in July 2020. The Third Amended Rights Plan is otherwise identical to the Existing Rights Plan in all material respects.
If the Rights Plan Resolution is passed at the Meeting, the Third Amended Rights Plan will be effective as of the date the resolution is passed. If the Rights Plan Resolution is not passed, the Rights Plan will become void and of no further force and effect and the Company will no longer have any form of shareholder rights plan.
Interest of Certain Persons in Matters to be Acted Upon
No Director or executive officer of the Company, no proposed nominee for election as a Director of the Company, and no associate or affiliate of any such person has any material interest, direct or indirect, by way of beneficial ownership of securities or otherwise, in any matter to be acted upon at the Meeting other than the election of Directors.

Additional Information About the Director Nominees
Biographies for each Director nominee, which include a summary of such nominee’s principal occupation and employment within the five preceding years, as well as a discussion of such nominee’s independence, are set out in the tables above and in the Company’s Annual Information Form dated March 1, 2022 (the “AIF”), and such information is incorporated by reference herein. The AIF can be found under the Company’s profile at www.sedar.com and on our website at www.triconresidential.com/investors. The Company will promptly provide a copy of the AIF free of charge to a Shareholder upon written request to the Company at 7 St. Thomas Street, Suite 801, Toronto, Ontario, M5S 2B7; Attention: Corporate Secretary.
Advance Notice Provisions
Consistent with its focus on good corporate governance, the Company’s by-laws contain provisions (the “Advance Notice Provisions”) providing a clear framework for advance notice of nominations of individuals for election to the Board. A copy of the relevant by-law of the Company is included in the Company’s Management Information Circular dated April 16, 2013, available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com. A copy is also available on the Company’s website at www.triconresidential.com/investors/corporate-governance/.
The Advance Notice Provisions set deadlines a certain number of days before a Shareholders’ meeting for a Shareholder to notify the Company of their intention to nominate one or more individuals for election to the Board, and explains the information that must be included with the notice for it to be valid. The Advance Notice Provisions apply at an annual meeting of Shareholders or a special meeting of Shareholders that is called to elect Directors, and may be waived by the Board. These provisions do not affect the ability of Shareholders to requisition a meeting or to make a proposal under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario). Pursuant to the Advance Notice Provisions, any nominations of individuals for election at the Meeting are required to be submitted by May 20, 2022. As of the date of this Information Circular, no such nominations had been received.
Majority Voting
Effective April 18, 2011, the Board adopted, in accordance with the rules of the TSX, a majority voting policy for the election of Directors at an annual Shareholders’ meeting. This includes the practice of ensuring that the proxy forms used for the election of Directors by Shareholders enable Shareholders to vote in favour of, or withhold their vote for, each Director nominee separately. In an uncontested election, any Director nominee who receives a greater number of votes “withheld” than votes “for” shall promptly submit to the Board their resignation, which shall take effect only upon the acceptance by the Board.
The Board, upon the recommendation of the Governance Committee, shall within 90 days following the date of the applicable meeting determine either to accept or not accept the Director’s resignation, and the Board shall promptly disclose, via press release, the determination, including, in cases where the Board has determined not to accept a resignation, the reasons therefor. It is generally expected that the Governance Committee will recommend that the Board accept such resignation except in extraordinary circumstances. If a resignation is accepted, the Board may appoint a new Director to fill any vacancy, or may reduce the size of the Board. A copy of the majority voting policy is available on the Company’s website at www.triconresidential.com/investors/corporate-governance/.
Cease Trade Orders, Bankruptcies, Penalties or Sanctions
None of the Directors or proposed Directors of the Company is, as at the date of this Information Circular, or has been, within the ten years before the date of this Information Circular, a director, chief executive officer or chief financial officer of any company (including the Company) that was subject to any of the following orders, that was in effect for a period of more than 30 consecutive days:

The independent Director fee structure for 2022 has been amended as described below
At least 50% of the annual base retainer is deferred in DSUs
Minimum share ownership guidelines require shareholdings equal to 3 times a Director’s annual retainer

    DSUs and Restricted Shares (as of May 1, 2022)


The Board of Directors’ compensation is designed to attract and retain committed and qualified Directors and to align their compensation with the long-term interests of Shareholders and the Company.
The Governance Committee is responsible for the development and implementation of the Directors’ compensation arrangements. The Governance Committee reviews and, if necessary, makes recommendations to the Board with respect to the compensation of Board members, the Executive Chairman of the Board, and those acting as committee chairs to, among other things, ensure their compensation appropriately reflects the responsibilities they are assuming.
The fee structure for independent Directors in Fiscal 2021 was as follows:

On August 10, 2021 the Board approved an amendment to the independent Director fee structure, effective January 1, 2022. The amendment followed the Governance Committee’s review of comparative market data on board compensation prepared by an external independent consultant, Hexarem Inc. (“Hexarem”), taking into account the Company’s relative size and complexity and the composition and effectiveness of the Board. The fee structure applicable to independent Directors beginning January 2022 is summarized below:

In addition, an independent Director may elect each year to receive all or a portion of the balance of their fees (including their base annual retainer and any additional retainer) in DSUs, which vest immediately upon grant. Any remaining balance of such fees not payable in DSUs is paid in cash.

image_14a.jpgMinimum Share Ownership Guideline
The Board compensation structure is designed to encourage the accumulation of equity in the Company through DSUs, and the Company has had Director minimum share ownership guidelines in place since 2019. However, in 2020, the Board approved an increase to the minimum Common Share ownership guidelines for Directors to three times an independent Board member’s annual retainer. This resulted in a required ownership threshold of C$450,000 in Fiscal 2021 and, with the increase of our Directors’ annual retainer to C$180,000 beginning in 2022, makes the minimum required ownership C$540,000 starting this year. Directors are required to achieve compliance with the more strenuous guidelines by the later of (i) six years following the respective Director’s appointment to the Board, and (ii) January 1, 2022. The Common Share (including DSU) ownership of Directors who are not NEOs is summarized below.

Selection of Board Nominees
The Governance Committee, which is comprised entirely of independent Directors, is responsible for recommending a proposed list of nominees for election to the Board. On March 1, 2022, the Governance Committee and the Board recommended the nomination of incumbent Directors for election at the Meeting. Mr. Cohen’s nomination has been confirmed by Blackstone pursuant to its right, conditional upon maintaining a certain beneficial ownership interest in the Company, to nominate one member of the Board of Directors in connection with the closing of the Blackstone Private Placement.
In coming to its recommendation, the Governance Committee considered its assessment of potential candidates; the size, composition, performance and effectiveness of the Board of Directors as a whole; and the competencies, experience, diversity, background and skills of the proposed candidates in view of the Board’s ability to operate efficiently and effectively in fulfilling its mandate. More specifically, the list of nominees is determined annually according to the following nomination process:
Nomination ProcessApplicable Practices and Policies
Evaluation
Annual review and assessment of professional skills, abilities, personality and other qualifications of each proposed nominee
Evaluation of the time and energy that the nominee is able to devote to the role
Determination of the specific contribution that each nominee can make to the Board
Competencies
Annual review of the competencies of the Board as a whole, and of Directors individually, using a skills matrix identifying key competencies and individual Director’s proficiency
Any assessed gap triggers a search by the Governance Committee for new nominees with the required missing competencies and qualifications
Term Limits and Renewal
No term limits, retirement age policy or formal policy on Board renewal for Directors; Board renewal is ensured through more interactive Director evaluation and succession planning
Nominees are selected by balancing (i) the benefit of adding new perspectives to the Board from time to time and (ii) the benefits associated with continuity and in-depth knowledge of each facet of Tricon’s business, which necessarily takes time to develop, and is important to retain given the unique nature of our industry
Annual Director, Board and committee assessments and performance evaluations are the main mechanisms to ensure Board renewal and continuous improvement
Effectiveness of the Board’s approach to ensuring appropriate Board renewal is evidenced by the fact that seven new Directors (representing 70% of the Board), including six independent Directors, have been elected or appointed to the Board since 2014.
Board Interlocks
The Board considers it to be good governance to avoid interlocking Board relationships, if possible
No formal limit on Board interlocks, but it is a nonexistent issue at the moment
Interlocking memberships will be considered, as they may arise, on a case-by-case basis based on recommendations from the Governance Committee, taking into account any circumstances which could impact a Director’s ability to exercise independent judgment
Diversity
The Board has adopted a formal gender diversity policy according to which a target of at least 1/3 of the Board would be of either gender which is in line with the gender diversity standards set by the 30% Club Canada
The Governance Committee believes that leadership diversity is a matter of importance and needs careful consideration, and remains committed to seeking qualified individuals of diverse backgrounds in selecting candidates for membership on the Board of Directors
When recruiting new Board members, the Governance Committee ensures that lists of potential candidates include female and racially diverse representation
Three of our seven independent Directors, and three of the ten current members of the Board, are women
10% of our Board members are BIPOC



- 39 -
Corporate Governance Guidelines
The Board has adopted Corporate Governance Guidelines (the “Guidelines”) to provide a structure within which our Directors and senior management can effectively pursue Tricon’s objectives and promote the highest standards of ethical behaviour and risk management. It is a working structure for principled actions, effective decision-making, and appropriate monitoring of compliance and performance. The Guidelines reflect Tricon’s commitment to good corporate governance and compliance with regulatory requirements for listed companies and other legal requirements. It is intended to serve as a flexible framework, not a set of binding legal obligations, within which to conduct business. The Guidelines address, among other things: Director qualification standards, Director responsibilities, Director access to management and independent advisers, Director compensation, Director orientation and continuing education, management succession and an annual performance evaluation. A copy of the Guidelines are available under the Company’s profile at www.sedar.com, can be found on our website at www.triconresidential.com/investors/corporate-governance/, and may be obtained upon written request to the Company at 7 St. Thomas Street, Suite 801, Toronto, Ontario, M5S 2B7; Attention: Corporate Secretary.
Orientation and Continuing Education
The Board encourages Directors to take relevant training programs to expand their knowledge of best practices in corporate governance, the nature and operation of the Company’s business, and broader industry issues affecting the Company. It is within the mandate of the Governance Committee to recommend to the Board continuing education activities or programs for Directors. The Company periodically arranges for guest speakers to attend Board or committee meetings to provide information and education to Directors on a variety of subjects relevant to the Company and the role of its Directors. Funds are also set aside for Directors to attend conferences and seminars as they deem appropriate to further their knowledge and ability to carry out their responsibilities. To further facilitate Director’s continuing education, each regularly-scheduled Board meeting dedicates a segment of the agenda to providing information or training on one or more topics of relevance, and Directors will participate in compliance and other educational programs provided to employees of the Company from time to time.
The Company also pays for publication subscriptions and memberships in associations, such as the Institute of Corporate Directors, to enable the Directors to keep informed of industry trends and best practices in corporate governance.
The Company has an orientation program for new Directors under which a new Director meets with members of senior management and the Board to discuss the role of the Board, its committees and its Directors, as well as the nature and operation of Tricon’s business. In addition, a new Director is presented with a Director manual that contains reference information to assist in the new Director’s orientation to the Company and their role, including key Company policies and procedures, the Company’s current strategic plan, the most recent annual and quarterly reports of the Company, and materials relating to key business issues. The Director manual is updated and provided to all Directors at least annually.
Director Assessment and Performance Evaluation
The Board, its committees and individual Directors are assessed annually through surveys of their effectiveness and contribution in order for the Board to satisfy itself that the Board, its committees, and its individual Directors are performing effectively.
The Governance Committee surveys all Directors to provide feedback on the effectiveness of the Board, committees, and individual Directors (with components relating to both self-assessment as well as peer evaluation). Assessment
surveys consider the effectiveness of the chairs, the adequacy and timeliness of materials and the sufficiency and time allowed for discussions of relevant issues at the Board or committee level. The surveys additionally provide for confidential and subjective comment on areas for improvement or issues that are relevant or notable for the Board or committee under evaluation. Each director is given the opportunity to assess the contribution of each of their peers relative to the performance standards. The chair of the Governance Committee compiles the results and assesses the operation of the Board and the committees, the adequacy of information provided to Directors, and the strategic direction and processes of the Board and committees. If concerns are raised, the chair of the Governance Committee will review the feedback individually with each affected Director on a confidential basis to encourage the relevant Director to develop an action plan to continue to hone and improve their contribution to the Board. The Board as a group is provided with an opportunity to discuss the assessment results in order to identify and address areas requiring attention or improvement. The assessments are also used by the Governance Committee to inform its recommendation of nominees for election to the Board.

Ethical Business Conduct
The Board of Directors has adopted a code of business conduct, fidelity and ethics (the “Code”) that sets out the principles that should guide the behaviour of Directors, officers and employees of the Company. The Code addresses, among others, the following issues:

Conflicts of interest;
Protection and proper use of corporate assets and opportunities;
Confidentiality of corporate information;


- 40 -
Fair dealing with the Company’s competitors and persons with whom the Company has a business relationship;
Obligations to the Company’s advisory clients;
Compliance with laws, rules and regulations; and
Reporting of any illegal or unethical behaviour.

The Board of Directors (or any committee to which that authority has been delegated) can grant waivers of compliance with the Code. No such waiver has been granted since the adoption of the Code and, consequently, the Company has not filed any material change report during the last fiscal year pertaining to any conduct of a Director or executive officer of the Company that constitutes a departure from the Code.
A copy of the Code is available under the Company’s profile at www.sedar.com, can be found on our website at www.triconresidential.com/investors/corporate-governance/, and may be obtained upon written request to the Company at 7 St. Thomas Street, Suite 801, Toronto, Ontario, M5S 2B7; Attention: Corporate Secretary.
We provide annual compliance training to ensure our people understand the laws and regulations impacting our business and their responsibility to ensure ongoing compliance in their day-to-day job responsibilities. The program covers corporate policies and procedures, information security, as well as policies and procedures that are specific to investment adviser roles. These sessions reinforce our principles and help our people make appropriate business decisions and reduce exposure to unnecessary risks. Over 98 percent of all new employees and 99 percent of head office employees completed compliance training in 2021 and we are targeting a completion rate of 90% for all employees over the next three years.

To ensure the Directors exercise independent judgment in considering transactions, agreements or decisions in respect of which a Director or executive officer has a material interest, the Director or (if in attendance) executive officer is required to recuse themselves from the Board meeting at the time such transaction, agreement or decision is considered by the Board and such individual will not be permitted to cast a vote on the matter.

image_18a.jpg

Whistleblower Policy

Through the Company’s whistleblower policy, the Board has established procedures that allow employees of the Company to confidentially, securely and anonymously submit concerns through a third-party service provider regarding any accounting or auditing matter or any other matter which such employee believes to be in violation of the Code. Any complaints received are acknowledged and promptly investigated, and a log of all complaints that are received is maintained, tracking their receipt, investigation and resolution. Any complaints that relate to questionable accounting or matters of a financial nature will be immediately brought to the attention, and reviewed under the direction, of the Audit Committee. We believe in fostering an open and honest workplace where our people accept and share the responsibility for reporting misconduct, with the understanding that an ethical workplace is in all our best interests.


Insider Trading Policy

According to the Company’s insider trading policy, no one with any knowledge of a material fact or a material change in the affairs of the Company that has not been generally disclosed to the public should purchase or sell any securities of the Company, inform anyone of such material information (other than in the necessary course of business) or advise anyone to purchase, sell, hold or exchange securities of the Company (or any other securities whose price or value may reasonably be expected to be affected by the material information) until such information has been generally disclosed to the public and sufficient time has elapsed for such information to have been adequately disseminated to the public.

Protecting the personal information of shareholders, residents, investors and employees is a key priority of the Company. This is reflected by Tricon’s privacy policy, the recent implementation of more robust procedures aimed at the protection of confidentiality in the course of day-to-day operations, as well as the appointment of a privacy officer tasked with ensuring that the Company remains compliant with privacy-related rules and regulations in each jurisdiction in which it operates. The whistleblower policy, insider trading policy and privacy policy can be found on our website at www.triconresidential.com/investors/corporate-governance/.
Information Technology Policies

Tricon’s information technology policies and procedures cover key topics such as system, data, email and internet usage and access, as well as acceptable use, password protocols and work device protection. All employees participate in regular cybersecurity awareness training to ensure they understand the policies and procedures regarding acceptable use. We also conduct annual assessments of our cybersecurity framework. In 2021, we began


- 41 -
an independent assessment of IT governance, key processes and controls to identify gaps and define a continuous improvement plan. This will pave the way for establishing an even more robust IT governance and cybersecurity framework to help govern, execute and monitor all key IT domains and processes.

Respectful Workplace Policy

With the goal of further fostering a respectful and safe work environment, the Company has adopted a formal policy to reflect its commitment to providing a workplace free from discrimination, harassment and violence, to educate employees on their rights and available recourse (including the confidential reporting of incidents of concern), and to set out the procedures to be followed in handling any such complaints. The policy is intended to ensure that the Company’s employees are aware of their rights and responsibilities relating to maintaining a safe and respectful workplace.
Business Continuity Plan
A key element of Tricon’s overall risk management strategy is the Business Continuity Plan (“BCP”), which was finalized in early 2020. The BCP specifies the actions we take in case of potential business disruptions that would lead to inaccessibility of business premises or primary systems and services. The objectives of the plan are to keep Tricon staff, stakeholders and third parties out of harm’s way and to provide the capacity to operate at a level of business activity that meets legal, fiduciary and regulatory obligations.
When the COVID-19 pandemic began, Tricon was quick to respond and put its Business Continuity Plan into action. Our employees were able to leverage our substantial investments in technology to continue to conduct operations without interruption while working from home. Tricon’s call centre staff members were fully equipped to begin working from home almost immediately, and leasing activities quickly transitioned to virtual tours and self-showings. In-person contact was minimized for our local market staff and protective equipment was used where necessary in order to continue providing essential maintenance requests and initiatives.
Enterprise Risk Management
We believe that value is maximized when management sets strategy and objectives that strike an optimal balance between growth and performance goals and their related risks, and efficiently and effectively deploys resources to achieve those objectives.
The Board has overall responsibility for the integrity of Tricon’s risk management systems and has delegated responsibility for risk oversight to the Audit Committee, which is also responsible for ensuring that internal controls are appropriately designed, implemented and monitored, and that financial reporting is complete and accurate.
Company management, under the auspices of the Board and Audit Committee, is responsible for the maintenance of our Enterprise Risk Management program.
Embodying COSO risk management principles, our management, as a first line of defence, works closely with our team of legal and compliance professionals and our newly formed internal audit department to analyze the risks confronting the company and its business by identifying and prioritizing those risks and designing, establishing, and ultimately testing risk controls and mitigation strategies.
Our internal audit department is the newest element of the company’s enterprise risk management program, having been launched in late 2021. Reporting directly to the Audit Committee independently from management, the department will focus in the near term on the company’s Sarbanes-Oxley Act compliance following our listing on the New York Stock Exchange.
The next step in the evolution of our risk management program will be the development of a more formal enterprise-wide system of risk identification and prioritization to better ensure that the company is focusing its risk mitigation efforts and resources as effectively as possible and striking the appropriate balance between mitigating risks and seizing opportunities.
Succession Planning
The Board is responsible for providing guidance and oversight on succession planning, both in terms of immediate response as well as long-term arrangements, for the Chief Executive Officer and each key executive and reviews such succession plans annually. Specifically, the annual succession planning process includes a review of the Company’s organizational structure and considering policies and principles for the selection and retention of the executive management in addition to succession planning. Discussions on this basis include prospects for high-performing executives, replacement scenarios for unexpected events and cross-training and development opportunities for the senior management team. When required, the Company also supplements with external hiring to address talent gaps and acquire critical skills. Specific customized succession plans are prepared to address any identified gaps or anticipated exits. In addition, management works with the Board to assess and enhance talent within its senior management team and internal talent more generally, investing time and resources in developing the managerial capabilities of the Company’s existing and future leaders.

Leadership Diversity
We understand that embracing diversity leads to improved employee performance, more resilient decision-making, and higher rates of innovation and creativity. Tricon is committed to the principles of, diversity, inclusion and belonging in our business, free from discrimination and harassment. We seek to enable all Tricon employees, regardless of race, ethnic origin, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, age, disability, or any other personal characteristics, to achieve their full potential in an environment characterized by equality of value, respect and opportunity. This principle extends across our organization and is embedded into our Company’s policies and practices.
Tricon’s diversity, inclusion and belonging priorities are a key part of our efforts to attract and retain talent, reduce employee turnover, increase job satisfaction, and build a culture of trust and collaboration. These priorities include:
Creating policies and programs for fostering diversity in our business (including our Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging Council, described below), and a culture of inclusivity and open communication;
Promoting diverse, inclusive and accessible work environments that facilitate collaboration and give employees the support they need to succeed; and
Building teams with a diverse range of thought and perspectives to encourage innovative thinking, and flexible, thoughtful decision-making.

image_191a.jpg

The Governance Committee and the Company also consider the level of female representation on the Board and in executive officer positions in identifying and nominating Director candidates and when making executive officer appointments. Tricon’s policy provides for a target of 1/3 of Directors being of either gender, which target the Company currently meets. This aligns the Company’s policy with the gender diversity standards set by the 30% Club Canada. While the Company has not adopted a similar target for the representation of women in executive officer appointments for the reasons noted below, it does consider the level of female and general diversity representation in such positions as well as in the Company’s succession planning, including in our leadership development programs.
The Company currently has three female Directors (amounting to female representation of 30% of the Board and 43% of independent Directors). As of May 1, 2022, one of the seven executive officers of the Company (14%) identify as a woman and six of the twenty-three members of the Company’s senior management team (26%), which includes Tricon’s executive officers, identify as women.
As part of our commitment to strengthen Tricon through diversity and combat systemic racism, we have joined the BlackNorth Initiative, an enterprise that is on a mission to remove barriers that negatively affect the lives of Black Canadians. By signing the BlackNorth Initiative CEO Pledge in 2020, we locked arms with Canada’s largest businesses and resolved to acknowledge and counter systemic anti-Black racism. With that pledge, Tricon established a goal to fill at least 3.5 percent of our executive and Board roles with Black leaders by 2025. We achieved our goal in July 2021 and will continue our advocacy.

While diversity is one issue of significant importance, the Governance Committee continues to believe that the key to effective leadership is to choose Directors and officers who, having regard to a wide array of factors, possess the range of necessary skills, experience, commitment and qualifications that are best suited to fostering effective leadership and decision-making at the Company. In addition to being proud to support broader diversity initiatives, the Board will continue to identify and select candidates based on additional and indispensable criteria such as:
merit, skills, experience and qualifications;
expected contribution and value-added to the group as a whole;
maximization of Board effectiveness and decision-making abilities; and
needs of the Company at the time.

Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging Council

In an effort to further strengthen the exceptionally diverse talents and abilities of our team members, and leverage their uniqueness, Tricon created a Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging Council in late 2021. The Council, with broad membership from across the organization, is charged with creating an ongoing plan that fosters an inclusive and supportive workplace, which ultimately will serve the Company by attracting, developing and retaining a talented and diverse workforce. Specifically, the Council will:
Guide the diversity management process by influencing policies and practices that create and maintain a diverse workforce in an inclusive environment, where everyone feels fulfilled and enjoys a sense of belonging;


- 43 -
Support diversity initiatives, sharing updates, celebrating successes and inspiring team members to be open and embrace change, diversity and inclusion; and
Establish metrics by which to measure and evaluate diversity, inclusion and belonging initiatives, recognize successes, track progress and identify opportunities.

Shareholder Engagement
Maintaining a dialogue with Shareholders is a key priority of the Company, especially on the topics of governance and compensation practices. Shareholders who are interested in engaging with the Company can attend the Meeting and pose questions to management. They can also learn more about the Company through the following:
webcasts of our quarterly earnings conference calls with research analysts;
webcasts of our annual investor day for institutional investors and analysts with presentations by our executives;
executive presentations at institutional and industry conferences; and
investor road shows, property tours, and various retail and institutional investor marketing events in Canada and the United States throughout the year.
The Company takes Shareholder feedback seriously. This is reflected by the Company’s implementation of numerous material changes in recent years in direct response to Shareholder input, including:
adopting consolidated accounting and other financial disclosure practices that reduce complexity and improve comparability of results with real estate peers, including launching a comprehensive supplemental information package;
adopting a comprehensive ESG plan and publishing an inaugural ESG Roadmap, as well as enhancing ESG disclosure in the Company’s quarterly results;
launching a new corporate website with easily accessible investor materials, regulatory filings, and ESG disclosure;
broadening the application of our diversity policy, setting and meeting a target that at least 1/3 of Directors would be of either gender; and
the multi-year overhaul of our executive compensation program which better aligns management and Shareholder interests and better reflects the latest and best practices employed by our corporate peer group, including the recent adoption of an innovative performance assessment process which aligns our CEO’s compensation with the achievement of annual targets set by the Board in respect of metrics identified as being essential to Tricon’s success.
In order to provide Shareholders with further clarity on ways in which they can engage with the Company, the Board has adopted a Shareholder Engagement Policy (the “Engagement Policy”). The Engagement Policy prescribes governance topics for discussion between the Board and Shareholders, guidelines regarding meeting attendance, and a means for Shareholders to contact the Board to request a meeting. Shareholders who are interested in directly engaging with the Board regarding those topics specified in the Engagement Policy are encouraged to review the Engagement Policy, which can be found on our website (www.triconresidential.com), and to contact the Board at:

Environmental, Social and Governance Program
Environmental, Social, and Governance ("ESG") principles have guided Tricon throughout its 34-year history of delivering business excellence. We remain focused on the following five strategic ESG priorities:
Our People: Tricon is committed to engaging, supporting, and enriching the lives of our employees so they can thrive and, in turn, take care of our residents and the communities in which we operate. To align our purpose-driven culture with our ESG strategy, Tricon focuses on: (i) creating an exceptional employee experience by empowering and enabling employees to unlock their potential; (ii) delivering company-wide professional development opportunities that promote high-performing work teams; and (iii) fostering a culture of diversity, inclusion and belonging to increase cognitive diversity and perspective.
Our Residents: Tricon's goal is to build meaningful communities where people can connect, grow, and prosper. In that continued effort, Tricon focuses on: (i) providing residents with high-quality housing and best-in-class resident experience; (ii) delivering Tricon Vantage – a market-leading program aimed at providing its U.S. residents with tools


- 44 -
and resources to set financial goals and enhance their long-term economic stability; and (iii) giving back to the communities where we operate through our volunteer services and charitable giving programs.
Launched in early 2022, Tricon Vantage is a program that represents the evolution of Tricon's resident-centric approach to single-family rental property management. At the core of this program is the Company's long-standing practice of voluntary self-governing on renewal rents, whereby Tricon caps annual rent increases for existing residents at rates typically below market. Tricon Vantage expands the Company's commitment to go above and beyond to enrich the lives of residents by offering the following new services:
Financial Literacy: In partnership with Operation HOPE, Tricon Vantage offers residents complimentary programs focused on enhancing their financial wellbeing, including workshops, one-on-one coaching and guided group sessions tailored to residents' individual financial goals. Residents also have access to information and guidance on improving their FICO score, budgeting and debt management, as well as customized approaches to personal savings to help them achieve financial freedom. If homeownership is a resident's goal, Tricon Vantage can help by providing tools and information needed to put homeownership within reach. 
Credit Builder: Tricon provides residents access to a credit builder program, which reports on-time rent payment history and paid-in-full status to TransUnion, Experian and Equifax to help residents build better credit scores. Residents also have access to credit score insights, such as the factors that affect their score, and instant alerts to any changes or updates related to their credit report. To date, participating residents reported an average credit score improvement of 48 points since the start of their participation, and over 1,380 residents are currently enrolled in the program.
Resident Home Purchase Program: Tricon's home purchase program gives qualifying residents the first opportunity to purchase the home they are renting in the event Tricon elects to sell it. To date, five residents have purchased their homes from Tricon, and an additional 25 residents are under contract to acquire homes from Tricon in early 2022.
Resident Emergency Assistance Fund: Tricon has established a fund to help support residents experiencing unexpected hardships such as job loss, health issues, death of a relative or other catastrophic events. The fund provides grants to residents on a case-by-case basis to help them pay rent, utilities, medical bills and insurance, and assist with short-term accommodations if necessary while repairs are being made to their home. In 2021, the program assisted over 40 residents in 10 markets.
image_20a.jpg
Resident Down Payment Assistance Program: Tricon plans to launch a resident down payment assistance program in Q3 2022 to provide qualifying long-term residents with a portion of their down payment to buy a home, should they choose to do so in the future. This program will reward long-term residents in financial good standing and help them with a crucial step toward homeownership – funding the down payment.


Our Innovation: Tricon is firmly committed to leveraging innovative technologies and housing solutions to drive convenience, connectivity and affordability. Core service offerings are guided by two key desired outcomes: (i) delivering superior service that creates exceptional resident experiences and (ii) developing offerings that enhance the lives of residents while addressing their housing needs.
Our Impact: Tricon is committed to making investments and operational decisions that reduce environmental impact and enhance the sustainability and resource efficiency of our portfolio. The environmental impact portion of our ESG program focuses on: (i) developing and implementing sustainable methodologies to ensure our investments, developments and renovation projects adhere to our ESG objectives and commitments; (ii) investigating and investing in new technologies, materials, and renovation methods to reduce resource consumption across our real estate portfolio and (iii) investigating and investing in the reduction of resource consumption across our property management and corporate office operations.
Our Governance: Tricon aims to proactively identify, understand, and manage the risks to our business while acting in a manner that exemplifies our commitment to ethics, integrity, trust, and transparency. Tricon’s ESG program focuses on the following governance initiatives: (i) maintaining a culture of compliance, integrity and ethics among all our employees and contractors; (ii) embedding a strong risk management culture by setting a foundation for


- 45 -
effectively identifying, analyzing and managing material and systemic risks; and (iii) maintaining a diverse Board of Directors composition, in which either gender is represented by at least one-third of all directors and the diversity targets of the BlackNorth Initiative CEO Pledge are met.
Our second ESG annual report is slated for publication in mid-2022. Details of our key ESG commitments, initiatives, policies, and reported performance progress can be found at https://triconresidential.com/investors/sustainability/.

COMPENSATION, NOMINATING AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE COMMITTEE
LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS
Strong Governance, Proven Commitment, Exceptional Operating Performance
By all accounts, 2021 was a breakout year for Tricon as we successfully navigated a second year of the COVID-19 pandemic while delivering exceptional operational and financial results and achieving significant strategic milestones. We harnessed powerful demand trends to deliver on our business plan and execute on bold strategic initiatives. Our ability to capitalize on these opportunities was only made possible due to our disciplined efforts over recent years to implement a simplified and differentiated business strategy. The results resonated with investors and culminated in Tricon’s successful completion of one of the largest U.S. real estate IPOs and Canadian follow-on offerings in history.
In 2021, we continued to improve our executive compensation program, seeking to maximize alignment of management and Shareholder interests and reflecting the latest and best practices employed by our corporate peer group. Although significant strides have already been made in this effort, we continue in our pursuit of improvement because alignment with Shareholder interests is one of the Board’s primary objectives, and we take this responsibility very seriously. The most recent example of these efforts is our adoption of an even more robust performance assessment process which creates direct alignment between our CEO’s compensation and the achievement of annual performance goals. At the outset of each calendar year the Governance Committee reviews and recommends for Board approval a CEO scorecard setting individual performance targets for the year. At year end, the Board assesses the CEO’s performance on these targets with the results dictating a multiplier to be applied to the CEO’s AIP award otherwise determined within a significant range of 80% to 120%. In 2021, the scorecard targets were set in respect of six pillars essential to Tricon’s success: shareholder value, employees, residents, technology and innovation, ESG, and risk management & governance. These same six pillars, together with an additional pillar identified as critical to Tricon’s performance, operating efficiency, form the basis of the scorecard targets set by the Governance Committee for 2022.
For NEOs, our compensation philosophy has resulted in an increased reliance on the use of fully at-risk PSUs which vest based on Adjusted EPS performance over three years. Similarly, the use of the Restricted Share Plan allows NEOs (and in particular, the CEO) to demonstrate to Shareholders a commitment to Tricon over the very long term. This is evidenced by the fact that the Restricted Shares awarded to our CEO in 2021 will not become unrestricted until 2031 and 2033 (10 and 12 years following the respective grant) and will be forfeited in their entirety in the event of a termination for cause or earlier resignation (subject to certain exceptions). Furthermore, LTIP equity subscription opportunities, awards and payments reward the long-term performance of our private investment vehicles and ensure absolute and direct alignment with the interests of our Shareholders and private investors.
Our executive compensation governance program has also resulted in measurable improvement in our NEOs’ equity ownership levels, with each of them currently exceeding our senior executive share ownership guidelines. Furthermore, this was achieved with a 2021 equity-based compensation burn rate of only 0.45%, thanks in large part to our reliance on our PSU and Restricted Share Plans to create alignment with Shareholders without undue pay-related dilution. Consistent with our goal of strengthening alignment with Shareholders the Governance Committee engaged Hexarem as an external independent consultant in 2021 to carry out a market benchmark study of executive and director compensation, assess compensation program effectiveness and assist with ongoing improvement of the Company’s compensation program. In 2021, on Hexarem’s recommendation, Tricon updated its current executive compensation comparator group for benchmarking purposes. While we believe that Tricon truly is a one-of-a-kind organization in its ability to achieve operational excellence as well as aggregate and manage third-party capital, we recognize the ongoing importance of gauging the appropriateness of the peers to which we compare ourselves as our business grows and evolves.
Finally, over the last year, our governance has also been meaningfully strengthened. In May 2021, the Company published its inaugural ESG report summarizing Tricon’s accomplishments in the year following the launch of its ESG roadmap in January 2020. The ESG roadmap formalizes the Environmental, Social and Governance principles that have guided Tricon’s decision-making and strategy for the past 34 years and highlights its ongoing commitment to five strategic priorities: Our People, Our Residents, Our Innovation, Our Impact and Our Governance. The Company continues in its commitment to diversity throughout its business across a range of factors, including expertise and experience, gender, geography, age, race and ethnicity. Examples of this commitment include efforts to achieve consistency between the Company’s diversity policy and the gender diversity standards set by the 30% Club Canada, setting and meeting a target that at least 1/3 of Directors would be of either gender and Tricon’s support of the BlackNorth Initiative CEO Pledge, committing the Company to longer-term diversity targets (which it currently meets) and other measures to combat anti-Black systemic racism.
2021 Performance and CEO Pay
Our approach to executive compensation is designed to attract, retain and motivate a world-class executive team, achieve alignment with Shareholders, and reflect best practices in corporate governance.
Tricon’s team once again delivered strong operational and financial results in 2021, a breakout year for the Company. Tricon’s net income from continuing operations increased meaningfully by 359% year-over-year, while Core FFO increased by 35% year-over-year to $152 million and Core FFO per share increased by 12% to $0.57 driven by strong performance in single-family rental, residential development and private funds and advisory. The result


- 47 -
surpassed our 3-year target of $0.52-0.57 set in 2019 and was achieved one year ahead of schedule. Moreover, the FFO per share growth was achieved while significantly de-leveraging our balance sheet from 55% net debt/assets to 35% over the course of the year. Tricon’s achievements were recognized by the capital markets, with a 72.5% total return for Tricon’s stock in 2021.
Given the Company’s strong Core FFO performance relative to its initial targets for the year, a final pool multiplier of 131% was justified under the AIP; however management voluntarily recommended a reduced AIP final pool of 120% of the preliminary pool, which was approved by the Board. The Board also assessed the CEO’s performance in respect of the ambitious CEO scorecard targets it set for 2021 and approved a multiplier of 1.05% to be applied to the CEO’s AIP award. As a result, the cash and equity-based AIP awards made to the CEO were above target. The year-over-year increase in the CEO’s awards was magnified by the 12% reduction in direct compensation (in Canadian dollars) paid to the CEO in 2020 compared to 2019, which was primarily attributable to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. We view this as a testament to the proper functioning of our incentive compensation program and its alignment with Shareholder interests.
Linking compensation with operational performance and total Shareholder return has been, and continues to be, a key priority of the Board. Our executive compensation philosophy has proven to be successful in achieving this goal. As presented in detail in the “Effectiveness of Our Compensation Program over Time” subsection on page 63, the average actual value of every C$100 granted annually to Gary Berman in the form of direct compensation since our 2010 IPO had increased to C$161 as of December 31, 2021, an outcome symmetric with our Shareholders’ total return which reflected an increase to C$319 over the same period. A similar analysis reflecting the five-year period following our executive compensation overhaul in 2017 shows a consistently tight link between our CEO compensation and our Shareholders’ total returns.
Engagement with Shareholders
We strive to improve continuously in all areas, including our executive compensation design, policies and disclosure and so we aim to gather and constructively assess feedback from Shareholders and other stakeholders. To that end, Tricon’s Shareholder Engagement Policy (a copy of which can be found on our website, www.triconresidential.com) prescribes governance topics for discussion between the Board and Shareholders, guidelines regarding meeting attendance, and a means for Shareholders to contact the Board to request a meeting. We look forward to continuing our productive and valued dialogue with our Shareholders. Looking ahead, key areas of focus for the Governance Committee and the Board will be to continue to:
Attract, retain and motivate the world-class executive team our stakeholders deserve;
Preserve our highly entrepreneurial spirit;
Link executive pay to performance over the long term;
Manage pay-related shareholder dilution well within industry standards; and
Oversee and expand many of the Company’s important ESG initiatives

On behalf of the Governance Committee and the Board, we thank you for your support. We welcome your feedback at any time by writing to us at board@triconresidential.com, or by mail at 7 St. Thomas Street, Suite 801, Toronto, Ontario, M5S 2B7; Attention: Corporate Secretary.
Sincerely,
“Siân M. Matthews”

Chair of the Compensation, Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
The Compensation, Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee
With respect to executive compensation governance, the role of the Governance Committee is to:

Review the various components of total compensation, either when policies and programs are being developed or when they are being applied, while ensuring compliance with sound compensation governance principles;
Ensure that Tricon’s executive compensation policies and programs comply with in-force regulations and standards;
Recommend that the Board approve new compensation programs or material changes to existing programs;
Ensure that Tricon’s compensation policies and programs promote sound risk management and closely tie executive compensation paid to Tricon’s operational performance and total shareholder return;
Consider the expectations of Shareholders and of governance organizations;


- 48 -
Ensure that the executive compensation program can attract, motivate and retain the best and brightest executive talent; and
Exercise discretion, as it deems necessary, to adjust individual and aggregate variable compensation.

Competencies of Governance Committee Members
All Governance Committee members have human resources, compensation, and risk management competencies. These competencies were gained from the experience they acquired in current or former positions, in particular in their capacities as senior officers at other major corporations, as members of boards of directors or through their educational background. Below is an overview of these competencies:

Human resources and compensation: knowledge and experience in managing compensation programs and understanding of principles and practices related to human resources;
Risk management: knowledge and experience in risk management, risk assessment and risk communication; and
Leadership: experience in a senior position in a major company or institution.

Michael Knowlton serves on the Governance Committee and is also the chair of the Audit Committee of the Company, which helps the Governance Committee make more informed decisions on the alignment of compensation policies and practices with the Company’s financial performance and risk management framework.

Compensation Philosophy
Our compensation philosophy recognizes that a highly qualified and engaged workforce is critical to our continued success, and guides compensation decisions made by our Board of Directors and our senior management. Our compensation philosophy is intended to reinforce our belief that Shareholders should have an opportunity to fully understand how our compensation principles, policies and programs support the achievement of our performance objectives, as well as the creation of value for our Shareholders over the long term.
Guiding Principles
To achieve these objectives, our approach to compensation is based on the following key philosophical principles:
1.Our compensation approach aligns with Shareholders’ long-term interests
We align the interests of executives with those of long-term Shareholders through effective compensation policies
2.Our compensation approach is transparent and reflects strong corporate governance
We strive to be a leader on governance issues, to continually adopt leading compensation practices, to ensure our compensation program is straightforward, and to communicate openly and clearly about our compensation practices
3.Our compensation approach reflects effective risk management
We ensure that compensation reflects an appropriate balance between risk and reward and does not provide incentives for excessive risk-taking or short-term decision-making
4.We pay for performance
We structure our compensation plan to create a high-performance culture by placing a large proportion of executive pay at-risk, with clear relationships between pay and performance
5.Compensation enables us to attract and retain the best and brightest in the industry
We set target compensation to ensure competitiveness in the markets where we operate and compete for talent. While competitive compensation helps us attract and retain talent, we know it must co-exist with sound business objectives, a healthy corporate culture, and the availability of meaningful and enriching work opportunities

These principles are reviewed periodically by the Governance Committee to ensure that they remain appropriate and aligned with our corporate strategy.
What Tricon Does
Rely on a well-defined compensation philosophy to guide pay decisions
Align performance-based compensation with corporate performance:
The majority of NEO compensation is variable, at-risk
Newly implemented performance assessment process directly ties the CEO’s AIP award multiplier to individual performance in respect of annual targets set by the Board
Annual Incentive Plan awards are approved by the Governance Committee and reflect annual corporate performance, business unit performance and individual performance
DSU, PSU, stock option and Restricted Share grants tie NEO compensation to Shareholder returns
Require NEOs to hold Common Shares
Encourage executives to take and retain gains from share-based awards in Common Shares
Prohibit bypassing compensation plan objectives by hedging or speculative transactions in Common Shares
Maintain a clawback policy applicable to any incentive compensation awards
Balance a mix of compensation vehicles spanning various time horizons
Benchmark executive compensation on a total compensation basis, not element by element
Target the size-adjusted (reduced) 50th percentile of our comparator group
Obtain support from an independent external compensation consultant who does not provide any other services to the Company

What Tricon Does Not Do
No supplemental executive retirement plan for the NEOs
No excessive perquisites
No bonus or multi-year grants guarantee
No employment termination clause exceeding 24 months of compensation, or 30 months in the case of termination following a change of control
No exercise price changes for stock options or exercise prices below fair market value

Plan (AIP)
(See page 56)
Funding: Capped Pool
AIP funding for executive participants is based on a preliminary pool equal to the sum of all such participants’ individual AIP targets, which are based on a benchmarking study
The size of the final pool may vary, up or down, based on Core FFO performance (excluding AIP expense), compared to budget
The final pool is capped at 150% of target and subject to Board discretion
Allocation
Executive participants are allocated a portion of the final AIP pool based on their individual and departmental performance. Individual and departmental performance goals for executives are developed through a consultative process with the CEO and the Governance Committee and comprised of subjective, qualitative metrics that align the individual’s specific role with the Company’s long-term corporate strategy. Performance is then assessed based on the individual’s contribution relative to such goals.
The CEO’s allocation otherwise determined is subject to an additional individual performance factor (which may increase or decrease the award) based on achievement of “scorecard” targets set by the Board at the beginning of the year.
AIP awards are allocated based on a target of 50% in cash for the CEO and 60% in cash for other executives
The remainder of executive AIP awards are equity-based and awarded:
Targeting at least 50% in PSUs cliff vesting over three years with a performance factor, based on Adjusted EPS, between 0% and 200%, and settled in cash
Targeting no more than 50% in awards with only time-based vesting (DSUs, stock options and/or Restricted Shares). Any DSUs or stock options granted will vest over three years from the grant date. Restricted Shares have much longer-term restriction periods (up to 12 years in Fiscal 2021).

Setting Executive Target Compensation
The Governance Committee has adopted a comparator group to establish the Company’s executive compensation structure and ensure its competitiveness relative to companies against which we compete for executive talent.
Our executive compensation structure is anchored to the comparator group’s size-adjusted 50th percentile. This target position was selected given the growth objectives of the Company, our management of third-party capital, and the unique skills required of our executive team.
Our current executive compensation comparator group, which was updated in 2020 for benchmarking purposes and applied, with necessary adjustments, for Fiscal 2021, is composed of 14 companies listed below, that:
Are publicly-traded, with a market capitalization of at least US$500 million
Have operations in North America focused on residential real estate sectors or asset management activities, broadly reflecting Tricon’s business portfolio and investment strategy
Invitation Homes Inc.Vornado Realty Trust
Essex Property Trust Inc.Kennedy-Wilson Holdings, Inc.
Mid-America Apartment Communities Inc.Morguard Corporation
UDR Inc.Dream Unlimited Corp.
American Homes 4 RentAcadia Realty Trust
Apartment Investment and Management CoColumbia Property Trust
Camden Property TrustIndependence Realty Trust Inc.
Size-Adjusting
Executive compensation is sensitive to the size and scope of a company. This trend is also observable in Tricon’s comparator group. Because Tricon’s size is below the median size of comparator group companies, the Governance Committee relied on comparator group compensation data size-adjusted downward to reflect Tricon’s scope.
Compensation percentile statistics used by the Governance Committee were size-adjusted using statistical regression methodologies that require an appropriate proxy for company size and scope. Given the diversity of business models in the comparator group, it was determined that market capitalization, adjusted to include the size of assets from third-party investors, is the best proxy of relative size and scope among comparator group companies.
image_22a.jpg
Consequently, market capitalization data were adjusted to include the size of assets from third-party investors for comparator companies and for Tricon in statistical regression analyses which resulted in size-adjusted market compensation data.
Independent External Consultant
The Governance Committee has the authority to select, engage and compensate an external compensation consultant to carry out its duties. In 2021, the Governance Committee engaged Hexarem as an external independent consultant to carry out a market benchmark study of executive and director compensation, assess compensation program effectiveness and assist with ongoing improvement of the Company’s compensation program.
The following table presents the fees paid to Hexarem in Fiscal 2020 and 2021.

Compensation-Related Risk Management Practices
There are certain risks inherent in the Company’s activities, which may impact the Company’s performance, financial position and the value of its securities. However, the Governance Committee ensures that policies and compensation practices in place do not encourage executives to take excessive risks. The Governance Committee has adopted the following policies and practices to mitigate the risks typically associated with a compensation program and to promote sound risk-taking.
A significant portion of executive variable compensation is deferred over different risk horizons for accountability purposes
Executive incentive compensation spans different risk horizons to balance several business priorities and to align executive interests with those of our Shareholders and private investors. The AIP and LTIP cover the following horizons for executive participants:
AIP cash payments reward annual individual and group achievements;
AIP payments deferred in PSUs reward sustained medium-term operational and share price performance;
AIP payments deferred in DSUs and stock options, respectively, reward medium-term and long-term share price performance and Restricted Share awards are intended to reward even longer-term share price performance; and
LTIP equity subscription opportunities, awards and payments reward the long-term performance of our private investment vehicles and ensure absolute and direct alignment with the interests of our Shareholders and private investors.

(1)Equity and cash entitlements under the LTIP are allocated or vest over the life of the investment vehicle to which they pertain. DSUs issued in respect of the Co-Investment vest over a three-year period. On May 6, 2019, in order to more closely align the vesting period with the expected remaining life of the Co-Investment, the LTIP was amended by the Board to reduce the vesting period applicable to LTIP DSU awards from five to three years.
The AIP pool funding is capped at 150% of target and further subject to Board discretion
The AIP pool for executive participants includes a cap to ensure an appropriate sharing of value between management and Shareholders and to limit the incentive to take excessive risks in order to achieve short-term, unsustainable performance. In addition, the Board may exercise discretion to reduce or increase the final AIP funding to ensure that payouts correlate with actual performance as intended at the time performance goals are set.
Forfeiture and clawback policy
The purpose of Tricon’s Incentive Compensation Clawback Policy is to address and redress situations in which individuals might profit from their misconduct.

The policy applies to all Tricon senior management and grants a committee comprised of independent Board members broad discretion to retract, cancel or seek reimbursement of incentive compensation received by current or former senior members of management in the event of a material restatement of, or inaccuracy in, the Company’s financial statements caused by misconduct or fraud.


- 54 -
Anti-hedging policy
The Company has adopted a policy that prohibits Directors and employees from directly or indirectly hedging the value of Common Shares or equity-based entitlements held as such actions reduce the alignment with Shareholder interests that the Company’s compensation program is intended to create.
More precisely, Directors and executives are prohibited from purchasing put options, selling call options or purchasing any financial instruments such as forward contracts, equity swaps, or collars, that are designed to hedge or offset variation in the market value of Tricon securities, including our Common Shares.
Share ownership guidelines for senior executives
The Board has instituted minimum share ownership requirements for the Company’s senior executives. We believe that requiring our executives to make a very significant direct investment in the Company, and to retain at least that level of investment, strongly aligns the Company’s decision-makers’ interests with those of our long-term Shareholders.
Our President and CEO is required to accumulate and maintain equity ownership worth at least 1.5 times his variable pay target under the AIP, which corresponds to 825% of his base salary. Other NEOs have a requirement equal to 1.0 times their variable pay targets, corresponding to between 200% and 400% of their respective base salaries.

2.See the Summary Compensation Table for the valuation of share-based and option-based awards.
NEO compensation in 2021 meaningfully exceeded 2020 compensation for a number of reasons. Chief among those is the result of the benchmarking study completed in 2020 which not only brought NEO salaries back in line with our peers, but also increased variable pay targets under the AIP (for example, the CEO’s target increased from 4.25x in 2020 to 5.5x, in line with the size-adjusted benchmarking against Tricon’s peer group). It was within this new framework, which will apply until 2024, that the Company’s exceptional financial performance in 2021 was measured. That performance, which led to Shareholders enjoying a 72.5% total shareholder return over the year, also led to management achieving a performance multiplier of 131% under the AIP; however, management voluntarily limited the size of the final AIP pool to 120% of the preliminary pool. Finally, the extent of the year-over-year increase is also exaggerated by fact that our 2020 executive compensation had been reduced meaningfully from the 2019 fiscal year as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Base Salary
The table below summarizes the NEOs’ base salary for Fiscal 2021, which was based on the results of our benchmarking study and taking into account individual performance, as well as the 2022 salaries, approved by the Governance Committee, which reflect management’s recommendation to voluntarily forgo salary increases this year.

These 2022 salaries are all consistent with a salary structure anchored at the size-adjusted median of our comparator group for each individual NEO. Individual positioning within the salary structure takes into account the particular executive’s performance, responsibility, skills and experience.
Annual Incentive Plan (AIP)
Our AIP rewards individual and collective achievement and promotes prudent risk management, as a significant portion of annual awards earned by executive participants must be deferred over time. The AIP is designed to ensure transparency and provide alignment with Shareholders through its use of non-dilutive PSUs, described below, which track the value of Common Shares to ensure Shareholder alignment, but are settled in cash to avoid Shareholder dilution. Restricted Shares are also used as a vehicle for further ensuring very long-term Shareholder alignment without diluting existing Shareholders, as Restricted Shares are acquired on the TSX and NYSE to satisfy awards. The Stock Option Plan and DSU Plan further reduce the potential for Shareholder dilution as such plans were converted from “evergreen” to ”fixed-number” plans and impose conservative limits on allowable security-based award grants on both an annual and aggregate basis.
In 2021 the Company adopted a more robust performance assessment process aimed at aligning our CEO’s compensation and the achievement of individual performance targets set by the Board. For 2021, these targets were set in respect of six metrics essential to Tricon’s success: shareholder value, employees, residents, technology and innovation, ESG, and risk management & governance. At year end, the CEO’s performance is assessed by the Board in light of these scorecard targets to determine a separate multiplier to be applied to the CEO’s AIP award (ranging from 80% to 120%), which may increase or decrease the CEO’s AIP award otherwise determined.
AIP Features



- 57 -
Objective
The purpose of the AIP is to provide an annual cash opportunity based on the Company’s annual results and to align the interests of executives with the interests of Shareholders over the long term by including a significant portion of equity-based compensation that is at-risk and that rewards future operational and share price performance
Funding
Funding is based on a formulaic approach with two main parameters:
1.Pre-set and market-benchmarked AIP target compensation level for each participant, the sum of which determines a preliminary pool
2.Company performance compared to performance objectives approved by the Board at the beginning of the year, the result of which determines an adjustment factor
image_30a.jpg
The adjustment factor for Fiscal 2021 was based on Core FFO (excluding AIP expense).
At the beginning of each year, the Board approves the financial performance goals that will be used to determine the adjustment factor for the year; for 2022, the Board has established a target based 50% on achieving the Company’s budgeted Core FFO (excluding AIP expense) target, and 50% on achieving its single-family home NOI growth targets.
Allocation
The final pool is allocated among participants based on their individual and collective performance
The CEO’s allocation otherwise determined is subject to an additional individual performance factor (which may increase or decrease the award) based on achievement of “scorecard” targets established by the Board at the beginning of the year
Subject to the Governance Committee’s discretion, AIP awards are allocated based on a target of 50% in cash for the CEO and 60% in cash for other executives, except in exceptional circumstances, including a participant’s one-time right under the AIP to elect to receive 100% of their AIP award for a given year in cash (which is subject to a C$500,000 limit on additional cash payable)
The remainder of executive AIP awards are equity-based and awarded in PSUs, stock options, DSUs and Restricted Shares
At least 50% in PSUs cliff vesting over three years at a rate of between 0% and 200% based on Adjusted EPS performance relative to pre-set annual targets and settled in cash. For 2021, on the basis of the Adjusted EPS performance, a multiplier of 200% was applied
No more than 50% in awards with time-based vesting only (stock options, DSUs and/or Restricted Shares). Any stock options or DSUs granted to executive participants vest in equal tranches over three years from the date of grant while Restricted Shares cliff vest on a longer timeline (10 or 12 years for 2021 awards made to the CEO)

2021 AIP Funding Results




- 58 -
image_31a.jpgFor Fiscal 2021, the adjustment factor was based on Core FFO (excluding AIP expense). The Board established a target of $130.7 million based on the Company’s annual budget, and the Company realized $169.3 million of Core FFO (excluding AIP expense) for the year. This performance would have justified a final pool equal to 131% of the preliminary pool under the AIP, however management voluntarily recommended a reduced AIP final pool of 120% of the preliminary pool, which was approved by the Governance Committee, in recognition of the fact that the Company’s 2021 performance dramatically exceeded expectations, in particular when contrasted to 2020.


The Governance Committee also assessed the CEO’s performance in light of his individual scorecard targets it set for 2021 and approved a multiplier of 1.05% to be applied to the CEO’s AIP award otherwise determined.

2021 AIP Allocation to NEOs
The Fiscal 2021 AIP awards to NEOs approved by the Governance Committee are set out below. These awards are aligned with the Company’s benchmarked market-competitive pay structure and reflect the NEOs’ individual contributions through Fiscal 2021.

Values and figures expressed herein have been rounded to the nearest thousand or to the nearest percent, as applicable.
2.See the Summary Compensation Table for the valuation of share-based and option-based awards.
3.One-third of the PSUs awarded were subject to performance evaluation in Fiscal 2021 and, on the basis of the Company’s Adjusted EPS performance, a multiplier of 200% was applied.
4.In light of the Company’s exceptional 2021 performance and successful listing of the Company’s Common Shares on the NYSE, achieved within the context of a tight labour market for top talent, the Board approved a mid-year award of a small portion of the AIP Pool to a large number of key contributors throughout the Company, including the NEOs. In order to encourage retention, the Governance Committee determined that the equity portion of these special awards made to NEOs be comprised exclusively of Restricted Shares, which vest over the very long term. David Berman’s award was paid in DSUs. As a result, the overall 2021 AIP allocation to the NEOs deviates from the target of having at least 50% of share-based awards be comprised of PSUs.
5.The Compensation Committee exercised its discretion to increase the cash portion of Mr. Ellenzweig’s 2021 AIP award to facilitate the full repayment of his previously-outstanding employee loan prior to its maturity.

2021 AIP Life Cycle from Grant to Payout
A significant portion of executive AIP awards are reinvested in the Company’s equity in the form of PSUs, stock options, DSUs and Restricted Shares and remain at-risk over the deferred period. The value of the deferred AIP award will vary upward or downward along with the Company’s total return and operational performance, as illustrated in the following chart.

Burn Rate Policy
The DSU Plan and Stock Option Plan effectively codify a burn rate limit, as they were converted from ”evergreen” to ”fixed-number” plans in 2020 with security-based award caps imposed on both an annual and aggregate basis. These limitations allow for no more than 2,000,000 new security-based awards to be granted in any one-year period, representing a burn rate cap of approximately 0.7%, a meaningful 50% reduction from the voluntary 2% burn rate limit previously in place.
The following table sets out our historical burn rate and projected limit.

Long-Term Incentive Plan (LTIP)
The Company’s LTIP is designed to align the interests of our employees, private investors and Shareholders based on the success of the private investment vehicles we manage. The key features of the LTIP are summarized below. A more detailed summary of our LTIP is included in Appendix B.


- 62 -
LTIP EntitlementsLTIP Awards in DSUs
Objective
Provides an opportunity to share directly in the Performance Fees, if any, earned in respect of our management of private funds and other investment vehicles
Provides an opportunity to share directly in the investment income, if any, earned from the Company’s Co-Investment in THP1US. The Company acquired most of the limited partnership interests in THP1US from third-party investors in 2013. Because this reduced the potential Performance Fees payable by this vehicle, the LTIP awards in DSUs serve as a proxy for cash LTIP payments that might otherwise have been earned
Design
Features
Certain of our investment vehicles may pay Performance Fees to the Company should pre-determined return thresholds for our private investors be exceeded. 50% of all Performance Fees received is retained by the Company, and the remaining 50% is allocated to management
To give effect to this allocation, the LTIP provides for an allocation of 100 points for each investment vehicle, consisting of (i) “management co-investment points”, which represent an opportunity to purchase Promote Units (described below) and (ii) “Cash Points” (together with Promote Units, “Points”).
Certain members of senior management are given the opportunity to participate in the potential Performance Fees by investing personal at-risk capital to subscribe at fair market value for ownership interests (“Promote Units”) in the entity entitled to receive such Performance Fees pursuant to a separate management co-investment plan for the vehicle.
Management’s 50% share of the Performance Fees received from time to time by the Company in respect of a particular investment vehicle (the “Participant Share”) is split pro rata among (i) those holding Promote Units, and (ii) participants with Cash Points
Points vest as follows: (i) 20 Points when the investment vehicle is established, (ii) 20 Points on each of the three anniversaries thereof, and (iii) the remaining 20 Points in connection with the termination of the investment vehicle
Each year, the Company grants an aggregate number of DSUs having a value equal to 15% of the investment income earned by the Company in the year from the Co-Investment (which income is excluded from the calculation of AIP awards)
Allocation
Point allocations are subject to Governance Committee approval
As (but only to the extent that) Performance Fees are received by the Company, individual participants participate in the Participant Share in proportion to the number of vested Points
The allocation of such DSUs among participants is subject to Governance Committee approval
Such DSUs are subject to the DSU Plan (described in Appendix B) and vest in equal installments each year from the date of grant, subject to the terms of the LTIP. DSUs awarded in years prior to 2019 vested over a five-year period. LTIP DSU awards made in 2019 and in all future years vest over a three-year period
Termination
Upon termination of an LTIP participant’s employment, any unvested Points (and, in the case of a termination for cause, vested Points) are forfeited and may be reallocated to the remaining LTIP participants
As per the DSU Plan (see Appendix B)

The following LTIP payments were received by the NEOs in respect of Fiscal 2021.

Share Ownership of Named Executive Officers
In accordance with the minimum share ownership guidelines for senior executives of the Company, including the NEOs, senior executives are expected to accumulate equity ownership (in the form of Common Shares and DSUs) in an amount corresponding to a multiple of their AIP target.

The NEOs’ equity ownership as of December 31, 2021 is summarized below. Compliance with minimum ownership guidelines is a fluid and ongoing requirement determined on the basis of the current market value of the Common Shares. If (i) a drop in the value of the Common Shares, or (ii) an increase in compensation paid to NEO(s), has the effect of reducing an NEO’s ownership below the required minimum guidelines, such NEO is required to increase their ownership accordingly.

The Governance Committee regularly monitors executive equity ownership relative to these requirements and is prepared to implement an “ownership accumulation accelerator” mechanism should the progress of any given executive over time not align with expectations.

Both are positively correlated, indicating that our compensation program rewards value creation. This trend is consistent for compensation received following Mr. Berman’s appointment as President and CEO of the Company in March 2015, as well as in the prior period when he was President and Chief Operating Officer.
The following table compares the grant date value of compensation awarded to Gary Berman since the IPO with the actual value received (money “taken home”) from compensation awards. The actual compensation received includes salary and cash incentive payments, as well as the value at maturity of DSUs granted (or current value for DSUs that are outstanding), the value of stock options exercised during the period, and the in-the-money value of stock options that remain outstanding, as well as the value of Restricted Shares outstanding adjusted for the restriction period completed. Actual compensation value is also known as the sum of “realized and realizable compensation”:
Realized compensation: Compensation “taken home” by the executive (salary; cash incentive; stock options exercised; monetized DSUs, PSUs and Restricted Shares)


- 65 -
Realizable compensation: Compensation not yet monetized (value of unredeemed DSUs and PSUs, in-the-money value of unexercised stock options and the value of Restricted Shares adjusted for the restriction period completed)
The second part of the table below compares the actual value of every C$100 granted annually to Gary Berman since the IPO with the value of C$100 invested on the first day of each fiscal year in Tricon’s Common Shares over the same period.

Performance Graph
The graph and table below compare the cumulative total Shareholder return per C$100 invested in Tricon Common Shares to the cumulative total return of the S&P/TSX Total Return Index from January 1, 2017 to the end of Fiscal 2021. The calculations assume that all dividends received on the Common Shares are reinvested. Dollar amounts are expressed in Canadian dollars.

Tricon’s annualized total shareholder return of 18.4% over the last five years has outperformed the S&P/TSX Index annualized total shareholder return of 10.0%. The value of a C$100 investment in Tricon Common Shares made on January 1, 2017 would be C$232.27 on December 31, 2021, while a similar investment in the S&P/TSX Index would be worth C$161.37.  Our strong operational and financial results in 2021 resulted in a one-year total shareholder return of 72.5% which outperformed the 25.1% return for the S&P/TSX Index over the same period. Consistently, as shown in the “Effectiveness of Our Compensation Program over Time” subsection of this Information Circular, the realizable value as of December 31, 2021 of our CEO’s 2017 total direct compensation is 66% above the grant-date value as of December 31, 2021. This outcome indicates that our compensation framework rewards value creation and creates strong alignment with our Shareholders.

(1)Compensation-related payments made to Messrs. Gary Berman, David Berman and Francis are made, and the value of share-based and option-based awards is computed, in Canadian dollars. For the purposes of translating these amounts into U.S. dollars, the CAD/USD conversion rates used for Fiscal 2021, 2020 and 2019 were 0.7980, 0.7461 and 0.7537, respectively, based on the average yearly exchange rates posted on the Bank of Canada website.
(2)Includes DSUs and PSUs granted in satisfaction of AIP and LTIP awards in respect of each fiscal year, regardless of when granted. Such amounts reflect the fair value of the underlying Common Shares at the time of grant. Share-based awards in respect of Gary Berman, Mr. Francis Mr. Ellenzweig and Mr. Baldridge also include awards made under the Company’s Restricted Share Plan, which have been valued using the purchase price of the Restricted Shares discounted by:
a.51.81% (12 year vesting), 48.48% (10 year vesting) and 32.85% (5 year vesting), as applicable, for the Restricted Shares purchased in 2021;
b.54.72% for the Restricted Shares purchased in 2020; and
c.54.46% for the Restricted Shares purchased in 2019,
to reflect the fair market value of such Restricted Shares. This fair market value was determined by Hexarem, an external independent consultant, taking into consideration, among other factors, the restrictions on transfer applicable to the Restricted Shares.
(3)The Company accounts for its stock options by calculating their fair value as of the grant date using a Black-Scholes option pricing model and observable market inputs in accordance with IFRS 2, Share-Based Payments. The Company did not grant any stock options in 2019. The fair value of stock options granted has been estimated based on the following assumptions:

Notes:
(1) The value of share-based awards (being DSUs, PSUs and Restricted Shares) is calculated based on the market value of the Common Shares at the end of Fiscal 2021 (C$19.36) and the value of unexercised in-the-money options is calculated based on the difference between this market value and the exercise prices of the options. For the purposes of translating these amounts into U.S. dollars, a CAD/USD conversion rate of 0.7888 was used, being the daily closing exchange rate as of December 31, 2021 posted on the Bank of Canada website.
(2) The terms of the Blackstone Investor Rights Agreement pursuant to which Mr. Cohen was nominated as a Director provide that his annual retainer is to be paid entirely in cash.

The following table sets forth the value of the NEOs’ and Directors’ option-based awards and share-based awards that (i) vested during Fiscal 2021, and/or (ii) was realized on exercise or redemption during Fiscal 2021, and sets out the value of non-equity incentive plan compensation earned by the NEOs and Directors during Fiscal 2021.

Securities Authorized for Issuance Under Equity Compensation Plans
The following table provides a summary, as at December 31, 2021, of the Company’s compensation plans under which equity securities of the Company are authorized for issuance. In 2020, the DSU Plan and Stock Option Plan


- 71 -
were converted from ”evergreen” to ”fixed-number” plans with security-based award caps imposed on both an annual and aggregate basis, effectively reducing potential Shareholder dilution. The limitations allow for no more than (i) 9,538,127 Common Shares in the aggregate to be issuable upon redemption of security-based awards, and (ii) 2,000,000 security-based awards to be granted in any one-year period, representing a current burn rate cap of approximately 0.7%, a meaningful reduction from the voluntary 2% burn rate limit previously in place.

The Company has no incentive plans that have not been approved by Shareholders under which equity securities of the Company are authorized for issuance. The Common Shares issuable upon exercise or redemption of outstanding stock options and DSUs represent 0.74% and 1.04%, respectively, of the total number of Common Shares issued and outstanding as of December 31, 2021.
(2) The number of securities remaining available for issuance under the Stock Option Plan and DSU Plan is the aggregate number that is collectively available under both plans and any other security-based compensation arrangement of the Company.

Employment Contracts
Each NEO is party to an employment agreement with Tricon for an indefinite term. Each agreement provides that the NEO will devote substantially all of their working time and attention to the due performance of their duties and will act in a manner consistent with the best interests of the Company, its affiliates and clients. Each employment agreement provides the NEO with a compensation package comprised of base salary, incentive plans and benefits, which is subject to adjustment from time to time at the discretion of the Board of Directors on the recommendation of the Governance Committee.
The Company has entered into a consulting agreement with Mandukwe Inc. for the provision of Geoff Matus’ services as consultant to the Company. The consulting agreement was effective as of January 1, 2013 with an indefinite term. Mandukwe Inc. receives fees under the arrangement and is also eligible to receive additional payments under the Company’s AIP and LTIP. The percentage participation in AIP awards allocated to Mandukwe Inc. annually is equal to approximately one-half of the percentage participation allocated to David Berman. The percentage participation in Performance Fees allocated to Mandukwe Inc. from all investment vehicles raised in years subsequent to 2011 is equal to approximately one-half of the percentage participation allocated to David Berman in respect of such investment vehicles. For the purposes of this Statement of Executive Compensation, the descriptions of the elements of NEO compensation and of NEO employment contracts and termination and change of control benefits apply to Geoff Matus (and/or Mandukwe Inc., as applicable), and Mandukwe Inc.’s consulting arrangements with the Company.
The employment contracts also provide for customary non-solicitation and (where permitted by law) non-competition covenants in favour of the Company, which continue for limited periods following termination of employment or consultancy. The contracts also include confidentiality covenants requiring the NEOs to maintain confidentiality during the term of the agreements and indefinitely thereafter.
Termination and Change of Control Benefits
Under the employment contracts, the Company may terminate the employment or consultancy, as applicable, without cause upon payment of an amount equal to a factor (the “Multiple”, described below) times the sum of (i) the NEO’s base salary (or Mandukwe Inc.’s consulting fees) for the year of termination, and (ii) the average annual AlP award made to the NEO during the last three years. For Gary Berman, David Berman and Mandukwe Inc., the Multiple equals 2.0. For Mr. Baldridge, the Multiple equals 1.0. For Mr. Francis and Mr. Ellenzweig, the Multiple, which is subject to a maximum of 2.0 (except as provided below), equals the sum of (i) the number of years of service divided by twelve (12) plus (ii) in the case of Mr. Francis, 0.5, and in the case of Mr. Ellenzweig, 0.75. In all cases, if the date of termination occurs on or within twelve (12) months following a change of control of the Company, then the Multiple for each NEO increases by 0.5 to a maximum of 2.5.

If employment or consultancy, as applicable, is terminated for cause or as a result of death, disability or resignation without good reason, the employee or consultant, as applicable, is entitled to unpaid base salary and vacation pay earned through to the date of termination, and participation in the AlP bonus plan terminates immediately upon the date of termination. In the case of termination as a result of disability or death, the AIP award that may have been earned in the year of termination will be paid to the NEO, pro-rated to the date of termination.

The key termination and change of control provisions of the DSU Plan, Stock Option Plan, PSU Plan and Restricted Share Plan are presented in Appendix B and apply in respect of stock options, DSUs, PSUs and Restricted Shares held by an NEO at the time of cessation of employment.

The following table provides details regarding the estimated incremental payments that the Company would have had to make to each NEO, assuming that such NEO’s employment was terminated on December 31, 2021 by the Company: (i) for any reason other than for cause or on the death of the NEO; and (ii) for any reason other than for cause or on the death of the NEO within 12 months of a change of control of the Company.

(2)For the purposes of translating amounts payable to all NEOs other than Mr. Ellenzweig and Mr. Baldridge into U.S. dollars, a CAD/USD conversion rate of 0.7888 was used, being the daily exchange rate as of December 31, 2021 posted on the Bank of Canada website.

Directors’ and Officers’ Insurance and Indemnification
The Company has obtained directors’ and officers’ liability insurance coverage with aggregate policy limits of $50,000,000 for the Directors and officers of the Company. The policies include securities claim coverage insuring against any legal obligation to pay on account of any securities claims brought against the Directors or officers of the Company. The total limit of liability is shared among the Directors and officers of the Company so that the limit of liability is not exclusive to any one of the respective Directors or officers. The premium paid for the directors’ and officers’ liability insurance covering the period from October 5, 2021 to October 14, 2022 was $3,918,000. The year-over-year increase in premium is attributable to the Company’s dual-listing of Common Shares on the NYSE (and related U.S. compliance requirements), which occurred in October 2021.

The by-laws of the Company provide for the indemnification of its Directors and officers from and against liability and costs in respect of any action or suit brought against them in connection with the execution of their duties of office, subject to certain limitations. The Company will indemnify Directors and officers in accordance with its specific indemnification agreements and to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law.

Indebtedness of Directors and Executive Officers
As of the date hereof, no individual who is a Director or executive officer of the Company, or at any time during the most recently completed financial year of the Company was a Director or executive officer of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, no individual proposed as a nominee for election as a Director of the Company and no associate of any such Director, executive officer or proposed nominee, is indebted to the Company.

Aggregate Indebtedness

The aggregate indebtedness to Tricon of all executive officers, Directors, employees and former executive officers, Directors and employees of the Company, excluding “routine indebtedness” (as defined under applicable securities laws), as at May 1, 2022 is approximately $1,563,400, as detailed in the following table.

APPENDIX B
KEY TERMS OF COMPENSATION PLANS
Deferred Share Unit Plan
The Shareholders of the Company last approved the Company’s DSU Plan at the Company’s annual and special meeting of Shareholders held on July 7, 2020. The DSU Plan was further amended by the Board on December 7, 2021 in respect of certain administrative amendments to facilitate participation by eligible U.S. participants and purchases of Common Shares on the NYSE (in addition to the TSX) in connection with the Company’s dual-listing of Common Shares on the NYSE in October 2021. The amendments did not require Shareholder approval as they concerned the administration of the plan. Under the DSU Plan, the Governance Committee, as designated by the Board, may grant awards in the form of DSUs (each, a “DSU Award”) to eligible participants as it, in its sole discretion, determines. Eligible participants under the DSU Plan include all of the Company’s Directors, officers and employees and any service providers of the Company as determined by the Governance Committee from time to time. In administering the DSU Plan, the Governance Committee may determine participants to whom DSUs are granted, when DSUs are granted, the number of DSUs subject to each award and the date on which each DSU vests (the “Vesting Date”).
In respect of each DSU Award grant, the eligible participant is credited with that number of DSUs equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the value of such participant’s award by the closing price of the Common Shares on the TSX or NYSE, as applicable depending on the date of grant and participant’s residency, on the last trading day on which Common Shares traded prior to the grant date, such that the grant date value is not less than the market price of the Common Shares. An account (a “DSU Account”) is maintained by the Company for each participant showing the DSUs credited to such participant from time to time.
DSU Plan participants are notionally entitled to receive distributions per DSU equal to the amount of dividends paid per Common Share. Such distributions are credited to the participant’s DSU Account in the form of additional DSUs. The number of DSUs credited for each dividend is equal to the aggregate amount of such dividend divided by the closing price of the Common Shares on the TSX, or NYSE, as applicable, on the last trading day on which Common Shares traded prior to the dividend payment date. All DSUs so credited have the same Vesting Date as those DSUs for which the applicable dividends were notionally declared.
Following their Vesting Date, vested DSUs are redeemable for Common Shares, issued by the Company from treasury, on a one-for-one basis, or, at the participant’s option and subject to the approval of the Governance Committee, for cash. Cash payments are calculated by multiplying the number of DSUs to be redeemed for cash by the closing price of the Common Shares on the TSX, or NYSE, as applicable, on the last trading day on which Common Shares traded prior to the redemption date. Vested DSUs held by participants who are U.S. taxpayers will be redeemed no later than 10 business days following the applicable vesting date. Vested DSUs held by participants who are Canadian residents and who are not U.S. taxpayers may be redeemed at any time following the applicable vesting date, provided that if DSUs held by participants who are not independent Directors are not redeemed prior to the seventh anniversary of the date such DSUs were granted they will be automatically redeemed on such seventh anniversary.
Where a participant in the DSU Plan is terminated without cause or the participant resigns for good reason, all of such participant’s unvested DSUs immediately vest and all vested DSUs are automatically redeemed 10 business days following the date of termination. Where a participant in the DSU Plan is terminated with cause, all of such participant’s vested DSUs that have not yet been redeemed, and all unvested DSUs, at the date of termination terminate immediately. Where a participant in the DSU Plan resigns or retires from the Company or ceases to be an eligible participant because of death or incapacity to work, all of such participant’s unvested DSUs at the date of termination terminate immediately and vested DSUs are automatically redeemed 10 business days following the date of termination. In the event of a Change of Control other than a Board Change of Control (in each case, as defined in the DSU Plan), unvested DSUs automatically vest and are redeemed immediately prior to completion of the Change of Control for Common Shares or cash at the option of the participant. In the event of a Board Change of Control, unvested DSUs automatically vest upon completion of the Board Change of Control and may be redeemed for Common Shares or cash at the option of the participant. The foregoing termination and vesting provisions that apply on termination of eligibility are subject to the discretion of the Governance Committee, as designated by the Board.
Other material terms of the DSU Plan are as follows:
(a)The aggregate number of Common Shares issuable (or reserved for issuance) upon the redemption of all DSUs granted under the DSU Plan, or any other security-based compensation arrangement of the Company (including, without limitation, the Stock Option Plan), cannot exceed 9,538,127 Common Shares;


- 78 -
(b)The aggregate number of DSUs granted under the DSU Plan and security-based awards granted under any other security-based compensation arrangement of the Company (including, without limitation, the Stock Option Plan), cannot exceed 2,000,000 in any one-year period;
(c)The DSU Plan limits insider participation such that the aggregate number of Common Shares: (i) issued to insiders within a one-year period under the DSU Plan and any other security-based compensation arrangement, and (ii) issuable to insiders at any time under the DSU Plan and any other security-based arrangement, cannot exceed 10% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares;
(d)The DSU Plan limits independent Director participation such that the number of Common Shares reserved for issuance and issuable within a one-year period under the DSU Plan and any other security-based compensation arrangement for any one independent Director cannot exceed 1% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares;
(e)The DSU Plan limits the aggregate value of DSUs, together with equity awards granted under any other security-based compensation arrangement, awarded in any one year to individual independent Directors to C$150,000 (excluding equity awards under the DSU Plan taken in lieu of any cash retainer or other Director fees), including C$100,000 with respect to stock options under the Stock Option Plan specifically;
(f)The DSU Plan does not provide for a maximum number of Common Shares which may be issued to an individual under the DSU Plan or any other security-based compensation arrangement, other than insiders and independent Directors (as described above);
(g)The number of Common Shares underlying outstanding DSUs will be adjusted in the event of any consolidation, subdivision, conversion, exchange or reclassification of the Common Shares;
(h)Subject to the terms of the DSU Plan, DSUs may not be assigned;
(i)Subject to the rules of the TSX, the Governance Committee, as designated by the Board, may amend the DSU Plan without Shareholder approval in certain instances including, among others: (i) minor changes of a “housekeeping” nature; (ii) amending DSUs awarded under the DSU Plan, provided that such amendment does not adversely alter or impair any DSU previously granted to a participant without the consent of such participant; (iii) making amendments concerning the administration of the DSU Plan or that are necessary to comply with the provisions of applicable law or the applicable rules of the TSX; and (iv) making any other amendment, fundamental or otherwise, not requiring Shareholder approval under applicable laws or the applicable rules of the TSX; and
(j)Shareholder approval is required for any amendment to the DSU Plan related to: (i) amending the provisions relating to the transferability of a DSU, other than for transfers by will or the law of succession or to corporations controlled by the individual or family trusts; (ii) amending insider participation limits, if any, which result in Shareholder approval being required on a disinterested basis; (iii) amending independent director participation limits; (iv) increasing the maximum number of Common Shares which may be issued under the DSU Plan; and (v) granting additional powers to the administrators to amend the DSU Plan or entitlements without Shareholder approval.
The maximum number of Common Shares available for issuance under the DSU Plan (together with other security-based arrangements of the Company, including, without limitation, the Stock Option Plan) is 9,538,127 Common Shares, representing approximately 3.49% of the total issued and outstanding Common Shares as of December 31, 2021.In 2021, the Company granted 928,855 DSUs under the DSU Plan. As of December 31, 2020, there were 2,847,575 DSUs outstanding, representing approximately 1.04% of the total issued and outstanding Common Shares. As of December 31, 2021, there are 4,673,225 Common Shares remaining available for grant under the DSU Plan (taking into account DSUs granted under the previous Amended and Restated Deferred Share Unit Plan) and other security-based compensation arrangements of the Company (including, without limitation, the Stock Option Plan), representing approximately 1.71% of the total issued and outstanding Common Shares.
Stock Option Plan
The Shareholders of the Company last approved the Company’s Stock Option Plan at the Company’s annual and special meeting of Shareholders held on July 7, 2020. The Stock Option Plan was further amended by the Board on December 7, 2021 in respect of certain administrative amendments to facilitate participation by eligible U.S. participants and purchases of Common Shares on the NYSE (in addition to the TSX) in connection with the Company’s dual-listing of Common Shares on the NYSE in October 2021. The amendments did not require Shareholder approval as they concerned the administration of the plan. The Governance Committee, as designated by the Board, may award stock options to eligible participants pursuant to the Stock Option Plan, as it, in its sole discretion, determines. Eligible participants under the Stock Option Plan include all of the Company’s Directors, officers and employees and any service providers of the Company as determined by the Governance Committee from time to time.


- 79 -
In August 2015, the Board approved a Stock Option Award Policy which provides that, with the exception of stock options awarded in connection with the commencement of employment, stock option awards to employees, if any, may be made once per year at the time the Governance Committee considers annual employee bonus awards. Previous stock option grants are taken into account by the Governance Committee when it considers the granting of new stock options.
The Governance Committee, as designated by the Board, may fix the terms of any stock options (including the vesting date, exercise price and expiry date) at the time such stock options are granted, subject to the terms of the Stock Option Plan. Stock options may not be exercised prior to their vesting date or following their expiry date. Subject to certain exceptions relating to blackout periods of the Company (as defined in the Company’s charters and policies governing trading in the Company’s securities), no stock option shall be exercisable after 10 years from the date on which it is granted (subject to customary blackout extensions). The exercise price of a stock option shall be determined at the time the stock option is granted, provided that such exercise price shall be no less than the closing price of the Common Shares on the TSX or NYSE, as applicable depending on the date of grant and participant’s residency, on the last trading day on which Common Shares traded prior to the date of grant.
A participant may exercise a vested stock option by delivering, along with the notice of exercise, the aggregate exercise price for the Common Shares to be acquired. Such Common Shares will be issued by the Company from treasury. Alternatively, a participant may elect to surrender their stock option in consideration for a payment equal to the difference between: (i) the number of Common Shares subject to the stock option multiplied by the closing price of the Common Shares on the TSX or NYSE, as applicable, on the last trading day on which Common Shares traded prior to the date of exercise, and (ii) the aggregate exercise price for such option (such difference being the “Option Value”), and such payment shall be in the form of (a) Common Shares, the number of which shall be calculated by dividing the Option Value by the closing price of the Common Shares on the TSX, or NYSE, as applicable, on the last trading day on which Common Shares traded prior to the surrender date or (b) subject to the approval of the Company, cash (the “Cash-Out Right”).
Where a participant in the Stock Option Plan is terminated without cause, resigns for good reason, or ceases to be an eligible participant because of death or incapacity to work, all of such participant’s unvested stock options immediately vest and all vested stock options generally expire no later than 90 days following the date of termination. Where a participant in the Stock Option Plan is terminated with cause, all of such participant’s vested stock options that have not yet been exercised, and all unvested stock options, at the date of termination terminate immediately. Where a participant in the Stock Option Plan resigns or retires from the Company, all of such participant’s unvested stock options at the date of termination terminate immediately and vested stock options generally expire no later than 90 days following the date of termination. In the event of a change of control, a participant is entitled to exercise all of their vested or unvested stock options, provided that if the consideration offered to Shareholders is not all cash, the election to exercise only applies to vested stock options. If the Common Shares subject to the exercised stock options are not taken up under an offer to purchase 50% or more of the Company’s voting securities, the stock options shall remain outstanding on the same terms and conditions and any funds tendered shall be returned to the participant. Upon the occurrence of certain transactions, the Company must make provision that participants who exercise unexpired stock options after the completion of the transaction are entitled to receive the number of securities of the successor entity as they otherwise would have received if the participant had held Common Shares on the effective date of such transaction. The foregoing termination and vesting provisions that apply on termination of eligibility are subject to the discretion of the Governance Committee, as designated by the Board.
Other material terms of the Stock Option Plan are as follows:
(a)The aggregate number of Common Shares issuable (or reserved for issuance) upon the exercise of all stock options granted under the Stock Option Plan, or any other security-based compensation arrangement of the Company (including, without limitation, the DSU Plan), cannot exceed 11,238,104 Common Shares;
(b)The aggregate number of stock options granted under the Stock Option Plan and security-based awards granted under any other security-based compensation arrangement of the Company (including, without limitation, the DSU Plan), cannot exceed 2,000,000 in any one-year period;
(c)The Stock Option Plan limits insider participation such that the aggregate number of Common Shares: (i) issued to insiders within a one-year period under the Stock Option Plan and any other security-based compensation arrangement, and (ii) issuable to insiders at any time under the Stock Option Plan and any other security-based arrangement, cannot exceed 10% of the listed and outstanding Common Shares;
(d)The Stock Option Plan limits independent Director participation such that the number of Common Shares reserved for issuance and issuable within a one-year period under the Stock Option Plan and any other security-based compensation arrangement for any one independent Director cannot exceed 1% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares;
(e)The Stock Option Plan limits the aggregate value of stock options, together with equity awards granted under any other security-based compensation arrangement, awarded in any one year to individual independent Directors to C$150,000 (excluding equity awards under the DSU Plan taken in lieu of any cash retainer or other Director fees), including C$100,000 with respect to stock options under the Stock Option Plan specifically;


- 80 -
(f)The Stock Option Plan does not provide for a maximum number of Common Shares which may be issued to an individual under the Stock Option Plan or any other security-based compensation arrangement, other than insiders and independent Directors (as described above);
(g)The number of Common Shares underlying outstanding stock options will be adjusted in the event of any consolidation, subdivision, conversion, exchange or reclassification of the Common Shares;
(h)Subject to the terms of the Stock Option Plan, stock options may not be assigned;
(i)Subject to the rules of the TSX, the Governance Committee, as designated by the Board, may amend the Stock Option Plan without Shareholder approval in certain instances including, among others: (i) minor changes of a “housekeeping” nature; (ii) amending stock options granted under the Stock Option Plan, provided that such amendment does not adversely alter or impair any stock option previously granted to a participant without the consent of such participant; (iii) making amendments concerning the administration of the Stock Option Plan or that are necessary to comply with the provisions of applicable law or the applicable rules of the TSX; and (iv) making any other amendment, fundamental or otherwise, not requiring Shareholder approval under applicable laws or the applicable rules of the TSX; and
(j)Shareholder approval is required for any amendment to the Stock Option Plan related to: (i) amending the provisions relating to the transferability of a stock option, other than for transfers by will or the law of succession or to corporations controlled by the individual or family trusts; (ii) reducing the exercise price of stock options or other entitlements; (iii) extending the term of stock options beyond the expiration date (subject to customary blackout extensions); (iv) amending insider participation limits, if any, which result in Shareholder approval being required on a disinterested basis; (v) amending independent director participation limits; (vi) increasing the maximum number of Common Shares which may be issued under the Stock Option Plan; and (vii) granting additional powers to the administrators to amend the Stock Option Plan or entitlements without Shareholder approval.
The maximum number of Common Shares available for issuance under the Stock Option Plan (together with other security-based arrangements of the Company, including, without limitation, the DSU Plan) is 11,238,104 Common Shares, representing approximately 4.12% of the total issued and outstanding Common Shares as of December 31, 2021. As of December 31, 2021, there were 2,017,327 stock options outstanding, representing approximately 0.74% of the total issued and outstanding Common Shares. As of December 31, 2021, there are 6,373,202 Common Shares remaining available for grant under the Stock Option Plan (taking into account stock options granted under the Stock Option Plan) and other security-based compensation arrangements of the Company (including, without limitation, the DSU Plan), representing approximately 2.34% of the total issued and outstanding Common Shares.
Long-Term Incentive Plan
LTIP provides long-term variable compensation to NEOs, in the form of cash entitlements and DSUs, that is directly linked to ongoing Company financial performance. The DSUs awarded under the LTIP are governed by the DSU Plan. The LTIP does not require Shareholder approval. The LTIP provides an opportunity for NEOs to participate directly in: (i) the incentive or performance fees (“Performance Fees”) earned by the Company in respect of its management of private funds and other investment vehicles (“Investment Vehicles”); and (ii) the investment income earned by the Company from one of its significant investments, as described below. The LTIP also provides an opportunity for certain members of senior management participate in the potential Performance Fees by investing personal at-risk capital to subscribe for ownership interests in the entity directly or indirectly entitled to receive such Performance Fees at fair market value (such ownership interests, “Promote Units”) pursuant to individual management co-investment plans (the “Management Co-Investment Plans”).
In order to allow participants to share in Performance Fees, the LTIP provides for the allocation of cash points (“Cash Points”) as well as “management co-investment points” that provide the opportunity to purchase Promote Units in certain profits interest Investment Vehicles (collectively with Cash Points, “Points”). A total of 100 Points is allocated among participants in respect of each Investment Vehicle and made available as follows: (i) 20 Points when the Investment Vehicle is established, (ii) 20 Points on each of the three anniversaries thereof, and (iii) the remaining 20 Points in connection with the termination of the Investment Vehicle. Promote Units are purchased by participants when an Investment Vehicle is established and are subject to vesting as follows: (i) 1/5 upon the date of purchase, (ii) 1/5 upon each of the three anniversaries of the date of purchase, and (iii) all remaining unvested interests in connection with the termination of the Investment Vehicle. Cash Points are granted to participants annually and are fully vested when granted, (except in the case of an award made to an employee that has been employed by the Company or any of its subsidiaries for less than three years, which awards vest on the third anniversary of such participant’s employment). Point allocations are subject to Governance Committee approval.
50% of the Performance Fees earned from time to time by the Company in respect of a particular Investment Vehicle (the “Participant Share”) is split between (i) those holding Promote Interests acquired pursuant to the Management Co-Investment Plans, and (ii) participants paid in cash, over time. The aggregate amount to which participants are entitled at any given time is a percentage of the Participant Share equal to the percentage of the Cash Points and Promote Units for the Investment Vehicle that has then vested. Payments to individual participants are made in proportion to the number of vested Cash Points and Promote Units held. As additional Cash Points and Promote Units vest, additional “catch-up” payments may be made (in proportion to vested Points held), as set out more fully in


- 81 -
the LTIP and Management Co-Investment Plans, so that the total of all amounts to which LTIP participants are entitled continues to be the percentage of the Participant Share equal to the percentage of the Cash Points and Promote Units that have vested. In respect of certain Investment Vehicles, payments to participants in respect of their Promote Units may represent proceeds from the disposition of Promote Units or the redemption of Promote Units by the Company subsidiary that is entitled to receive the associated Performance Fees.
Upon termination of an LTIP participant’s employment, any unvested Points (and, in the case of a termination for cause, vested Points) allocated to the participant are forfeited and may be reallocated to the remaining LTIP participants.
The LTIP also provides participants with the ability to share in the income earned from the Company’s indirect 68.4% interest in Tricon Housing Partners US LP (the “Co-Investment”). Each year, the Company grants an aggregate number of DSUs having a value equal to the AIP Percentage multiplied by the income the Company earns in the year from the Co-Investment (which income, as noted above, is excluded from the calculation of AIP awards). The allocation of such DSUs among participants is subject to Governance Committee approval. Such DSUs are subject to the DSU Plan (defined and described above) and vest in equal installments each year from the date of grant, subject to the terms of the LTIP. DSUs currently issued in respect of the Co-Investment vest over a three-year period. On May 6, 2019, in order to more closely align the vesting period with the expected remaining life of the Co-Investment, the LTIP was amended by the Board to reduce the vesting period applicable to future LTIP DSU awards from five to three years.
The LTIP, as amended from time to time, first came into effect as of January 1, 2013, prior to which certain NEOs had entitlements to share in Performance Fees earned in respect of then-existing Investment Vehicles. Such prior arrangements are not affected by the current LTIP.
Performance Share Unit Plan
The PSU Plan was initially adopted in 2018 as a new at-risk, variable and non-dilutive component of executive compensation intended to reduce reliance on the Company's DSUs and stock options as compensation tools. The adoption of the PSU Plan was not subject to Shareholder approval under the rules of the TSX as it will not result in the issuance or potential issuance of securities from treasury. The PSU Plan was further amended by the Board on December 7, 2021 in respect of certain administrative amendments to facilitate participation by eligible U.S. participants and account for trading prices of Common Shares on the NYSE (in addition to the TSX) in connection with the Company’s dual-listing of Common Shares on the NYSE in October 2021. The amendments did not require Shareholder approval as they concerned the administration of the plan.
The purpose of the PSU Plan is to:
motivate and reward officers and employees of the Company (“PSU Participants”) for increasing the corporate performance of the Company and the price of the Company’s Common Shares;
align the interests of PSU Participants with the interests of Shareholders;
reinforce a long-term accountability culture within the Company and foster a common sense of purpose and direction; and
provide competitive reward opportunities that will assist in attracting and retaining valuable employees.
The PSU Plan empowers the Board, directly or through a committee of the Board (the “Administrators”), to make grants of performance share units (“PSUs”) to PSU Participants in such amounts and on such terms as the Administrators determine. Each PSU is economically equivalent to one Common Share.
PSUs granted to PSU Participants vest on the date the Board approves Tricon’s annual financial statements for the final year of the applicable “Performance Period” for any grant of PSUs (which Performance Period shall in no event extend beyond December 31 of the third calendar year following the calendar year in respect of which a PSU award is granted), subject to accelerated vesting or forfeiture on the termination of a PSU Participant’s employment or a change of control (as described below). Vested PSUs are redeemed and settled in cash following the expiration of the Performance Period for an amount equal to the number of vested PSUs held by the PSU Participant at such time multiplied by the weighted average closing price of the Common Shares on the TSX or NYSE, as applicable depending on the date of grant and participant’s residency, for the 20 trading days immediately prior to the release of the Company’s audited financial statements in respect of the final year of the Performance Period.
The number of PSUs held by a PSU Participant is adjusted annually (such adjusted number, the “Adjusted PSU Number”) based on (i) Tricon’s achievement of certain performance measures consisting of a defined metric or set of metrics and performance objectives (the “Performance Measures”) and an adjustment factor (the “Performance Multiplier”) that is linked to the achievement of thresholds set out in the Performance Measures (with results in between thresholds interpolated or calculated by other methods, as determined by the Administrators) and (ii) any


- 82 -
additional PSUs granted to a PSU Participant on account of cash dividends paid on the Company’s Common Shares (as described below).
In the event that cash dividends are paid on the Common Shares, additional PSUs will be credited to the PSU account maintained by the Company for each PSU Participant, as determined by dividing (i) the amount determined by multiplying (A) the PSU Participant’s Adjusted PSU Number for the Performance Period as at the relevant dividend record date by (B) the amount of dividends paid by the Company on each Common Share, by (ii) the fair market value of a Common Share on the dividend payment date. Any such PSUs will accumulate during the Performance Period and will vest and be subject to the same terms, Performance Measures and Performance Multiplier as the original grant to which they relate. PSUs granted to PSU Participants do not otherwise entitle PSU Participants to any dividend rights or any other rights as Shareholders, including voting rights or rights on liquidation.
In the event of the termination of a PSU Participant for cause, upon the voluntary termination of employment or resignation of a PSU Participant or upon a PSU Participant who is not otherwise an employee of the Company ceasing to be an officer of the Company or a subsidiary of the Company, all unvested PSUs and all vested PSUs held by such PSU Participant that have not been redeemed will immediately terminate as of the date of such termination or resignation.
In the event of the termination of a PSU Participant as a result of such PSU Participant’s death or disability, or upon such PSU Participant’s retirement, any PSUs forming part of such PSU Participant’s Adjusted PSU Number as of the end of the year of the Performance Period immediately preceding the year of termination or retirement, plus a pro rata portion of PSUs granted in respect of the year of termination or retirement (without application of any Performance Multiplier in respect of such year) will vest, and any remaining PSUs in such PSU Participant’s PSU account will immediately be cancelled.
In the event of the termination of a PSU Participant’s employment without cause, or upon the resignation of a PSU Participant for any reason that would be considered to amount to constructive dismissal at common law, any PSUs forming part of such PSU Participant’s Adjusted PSU Number as of the end of the year of the Performance Period immediately preceding the year of termination or resignation, plus any PSUs granted to the PSU Participant in respect of the remaining years of the Performance Period (without application of any Performance Multiplier in respect of such years), will vest.
The Administrators may, in their sole and absolute discretion, at any time prior to or following any of the foregoing events of termination, permit the vesting and redemption of any or all PSUs held by the relevant PSU Participant in the manner and on the terms authorized by the Administrators.
In the event of a change of control of the Company, other than as a result of or in connection with a contested election of directors at which at least two-thirds of the director nominees named in the most recent management information circular of the Company for election as directors are not elected (a “Board Change of Control”), all of a PSU Participant’s unvested PSUs will automatically vest and be redeemed immediately prior to the completion of such change of control. In connection with any such redemption, the Administrators shall determine the Performance Multiplier to be applied for each PSU Participant in respect of the fiscal years in a Performance Period that end after the date of the change of control, based on (i) the achievement of each Performance Measure for the fiscal year in which the change of control occurs up to the date of the change of control, (ii) the achievement of the Performance Measures in any earlier fiscal years in the applicable Performance Period, and (iii) any other factors that the Administrators deem to be appropriate.
Upon a Board Change of Control, all of a PSU Participant’s unvested PSUs will automatically vest upon the completion of such Board Change of Control and be redeemed on the same terms as if such PSUs had been redeemed upon the expiration of the Performance Period (as described above).
The Board reserves the right to amend, suspend or terminate the PSU Plan without obtaining the approval of Shareholders, subject to requirements under applicable law and regulations (including the regulations of the TSX).
Restricted Share Plan
The Restricted Share Plan was initially adopted in 2018 to serve as a cost-effective long-term incentive plan for select employees of the Company. The adoption of the Restricted Share Plan was not subject to Shareholder approval under the rules of the TSX as it will not result in the issuance or potential issuance of securities from treasury. The Restricted Share Plan was further amended by the Board on December 7, 2021 in respect of certain administrative amendments to facilitate participation by eligible U.S. participants and account for trading prices of Common Shares on the NYSE (in addition to the TSX) in connection with the Company’s dual-listing of Common Shares on the NYSE in October 2021. The amendments did not require Shareholder approval as they concerned the administration of the plan.
The purpose of the Restricted Share Plan is to:
advance the interests of the Company and its Shareholders by attracting, retaining and motivating officers, directors and employees of the Company (“RS Participants”);


- 83 -
provide RS Participants with a performance incentive for continued and improved service with the Company; and
enhance RS Participants’ contribution to increased profit by promoting an alignment of interests between those individuals and Shareholders.
The Restricted Share Plan empowers the Board, directly or through a committee of the Board, to make grants of Restricted Shares to RS Participants for services rendered. A RS Participant's Restricted Shares are subject to restrictions on sale or transfer for such periods as are determined by the Board on the date of the grant and only become free of the restrictions imposed once the restriction terms and conditions are satisfied.
Restricted Shares granted to RS Participants are purchased on the facilities of the TSX or NYSE, as applicable depending on the date of grant and participant’s residency, by a third-party broker and are held in custodial arrangements with a designated custodian (the “Custodian”) while the applicable restrictions remain unsatisfied, being released from such custodial arrangements to the RS Participant only as the restrictions are fulfilled (subject to earlier forfeiture or accelerated vesting as described below). It is expected that vesting periods will range from between eight and fifteen years from the date of the grant. Restricted Shares for which restriction terms and conditions are not satisfied are forfeited and the Participant thereafter has no ownership interest in the forfeited Restricted Shares.
Subject to the restrictions on transfer noted above, a RS Participant will have ownership of the Restricted Shares granted and enjoy the same rights and benefits as other Shareholders, including the right to vote and receive any dividends or special distributions, unless otherwise determined by the Board. Dividends earned on Restricted Shares are reinvested in additional Restricted Shares that are subject to the same restrictions as the original grant.
In the event of the termination of a RS Participant for cause, or upon the voluntary termination of employment or resignation of a RS Participant (subject to certain exceptions) prior to the expiry of the applicable restrictions, any Restricted Shares held by the RS Participant that remain subject to restrictions shall be forfeited and deemed to be donated to the Company for no consideration.
In the event of the termination of a RS Participant without cause, or upon the voluntary termination of employment or resignation of a RS Participant for any reason that would amount to constructive dismissal at common law, or upon the death or disability of a RS Participant, the restrictions applicable to the Restricted Shares will immediately lapse and the Custodian will release or dispose of such Restricted Shares on behalf and at the direction of the RS Participant.
In the event of the retirement of a RS Participant, or in the event that a RS Participant who is a director ceases to be a director of the Company, prior to the expiry of the applicable restrictions, the Restricted Shares will continue to be held by the Custodian as nominee and on behalf of such RS Participant and will remain subject to the applicable restrictions and the terms of the Restricted Share Plan.
In the event of a change of control of the Company, all remaining restrictions attaching to the Restricted Shares will immediately expire and the Company shall confirm to the Custodian that all such Restricted Shares may be released as directed by, or disposed on behalf of, the RS Participants, immediately prior to the completion of the change of control.
The Board reserves the right to amend, suspend or terminate the Restricted Share Plan without obtaining the approval of Shareholders, subject to requirements under applicable law and regulations (including the regulations of the TSX).

In this regard, they will comply with their duties of honesty, loyalty, care, diligence, skill and prudence.
In addition, Directors are expected to carry out their duties in accordance with policies adopted by the Board from time to time.
It is expected that management will co-operate in all ways to facilitate compliance by the Board with its legal duties by causing the Company and any subsidiaries of the Company to take such actions as may be necessary in that regard and by promptly reporting any data or information to the Board that may affect such compliance.

The Board will meet not less than four (4) times per year: at least three (3) meetings to review quarterly results, and one (1) prior to the issuance of the annual financial results of the Company.

5.Telephone Board Meetings
A Director may participate in a meeting of the Board or in a committee meeting by means of telephone, web conference or such other communications facilities as permit all persons participating in the meeting to communicate with each other, and a Director participating in such a meeting by such means is deemed to be present at the meeting.
While it is the intent of the Board to follow an agreed meeting schedule as closely as possible, it is felt that, from time to time, with respect to time sensitive matters, ad hoc telephone or web conference Board meetings may be required to be called in order for Directors to be in a position to better fulfill their legal obligations. Alternatively, management may request the Board to approve certain matters by unanimous consent.
6.Expectations of Management
Management shall be required to report to the Board on the performance of the Company, new and proposed initiatives, the Company’s business and investments, management concerns and any other matter the Board or its Chair may deem appropriate. In addition, the Board expects management to promptly report to the Chair any significant developments, changes, transactions or proposals respecting the Company or any of its subsidiaries.
7.Communications Policy
The Board approves the content of the Company’s major communications to shareholders and the investing public including the Annual Report, Management Information Circular, the Annual Information Form and any prospectuses which may be issued. The Audit Committee shall review and recommend to the Board the approval of the quarterly and annual financial statements (including the Management Discussion & Analysis) and press releases relating to financial matters. The Board also has responsibility for monitoring all of the Company’s external communications. However, the Board believes that it is the function of management to speak for the Company in its communications with the investment community, the media, customers, suppliers, employees, governments and the general public.
The Board shall have responsibility for reviewing the Company’s policies and practices with respect to disclosure of financial and other information including insider reporting and trading. The Board shall approve and monitor the disclosure policies designed to assist the Company in meeting its objective of providing timely, consistent and credible dissemination of information, consistent with disclosure requirements under applicable securities law. The Board shall review the Company’s policies relating to communications and disclosure on an annual basis.
Generally, communications from shareholders and the investment community will be directed to the Chief Executive Officer or their delegate, who will coordinate an appropriate response depending on the nature of the communication. It is expected that if communications from stakeholders are made to the Chair or to other individual Directors, management will be informed and consulted to determine any appropriate response.

8.Measures for Receiving Shareholder Feedback
All publicly disseminated materials of the Company shall provide for a mechanism for feedback of shareholders.
9.Internal Control and Management Information Systems
The Board has responsibility for the integrity of the Company’s internal control and management information systems. All material matters relating to the Company and its business, including, for greater certainty and without limitation, any investments made by the Company which require Board approval under the Company’s Investment Allocation policy (as amended by the Board from time to time), require the prior approval of the Board. Management is authorized to act, without Board approval, on all ordinary course matters relating to the Company’s business and investments.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, any Rights held by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall be void.
(b)Until the Separation Time:
(i)the Rights shall not be exercisable and no Right may be exercised; and

(iii)payment by certified cheque, banker’s draft or money order payable to the order of the Company, of a sum equal to the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Rights being exercised and a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or charge which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the transfer or delivery of Rights Certificates or the issuance or delivery of certificates for Common Shares in a name other than that of the holder of the Rights being exercised.
(e)Upon receipt of a Rights Certificate, together with a duly completed Election to Exercise executed in accordance with Clause 2.2(d)(ii), which does not indicate that such Right is null and void as provided by Subsection 3.1(b), and payment as set forth in Clause 2.2(d)(iii), the Rights Agent (unless otherwise instructed by the Company in the event that the Company is of the opinion that the Rights cannot be exercised in accordance with this Agreement) will thereupon promptly:

(ii)take all such actions as may be necessary and within its power to comply with the requirements of its constating documents, the Securities Act and the securities laws or comparable legislation of each of the provinces and territories of Canada and any other applicable law, rule or regulation, in connection with the issuance and delivery of the Rights Certificates and the issuance of any Common Shares upon exercise of Rights;

(v)pay when due and payable, if applicable, any and all federal, provincial and municipal transfer taxes and charges (not including any income or capital taxes of the holder or exercising holder or any liability of the Company to withhold tax) which may be payable in respect of the original issuance or delivery of the Rights Certificates, or certificates for Common Shares to be issued upon exercise of any Rights, provided that the Company shall not be required to pay any transfer tax or charge which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the transfer or delivery of Rights Certificates or the issuance or delivery of certificates for Common Shares in a name other than that of the holder of the Rights being transferred or exercised; and
(vi)after the Separation Time, except as permitted by Section 5.1, not take (or permit any Subsidiary to take) any action if at the time such action is taken it is reasonably foreseeable that such action will diminish substantially or otherwise eliminate the benefits intended to be afforded by the Rights.
1.3Adjustments to Exercise Price; Number of Rights
The Exercise Price, the number and kind of securities subject to purchase upon exercise of each Right and the number of Rights outstanding are subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in this Section 2.3.
(a)In the event the Company at any time after the Separation Time and prior to the Expiration Time:
(i)declares or pays a dividend on Common Shares payable in Common Shares (or other securities exchangeable for or convertible into or giving a right to acquire Common Shares or other capital stock) other than pursuant to any optional dividend reinvestment plan or a dividend payable in Voting Securities in lieu of a regular periodic cash dividend;
(ii)subdivides or changes the then outstanding Common Shares into a greater number of Common Shares;
(iii)consolidates or changes the then outstanding Common Shares into a smaller number of Common Shares; or
(iv)otherwise issues any Common Shares (or other securities exchangeable for or convertible into or giving a right to acquire Common Shares) in respect of, in lieu of or in exchange for existing Common Shares in a reclassification, amalgamation, merger, statutory arrangement, or consolidation,
the Exercise Price, the number of Rights outstanding and the securities purchasable upon exercise of the Rights shall be adjusted as of the record or effective date as follows:
(x)    the Exercise Price in effect after such adjustment will be equal to the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment divided by the number of Common Shares (the “Expansion Factor”) that a holder of one Common Share immediately prior to such distribution, subdivision, change, consolidation or issuance would hold thereafter as a result thereof (assuming the exercise of any such exchange, conversion or acquisition rights); and
(y)    each Right held prior to such adjustment shall become that number of Rights equal to the Expansion Factor and the adjusted number of Rights will be deemed to be allocated among the Common Shares with respect to which the original Rights were associated (if they remain outstanding) and the shares issued in respect of such distribution, subdivision, change, consolidation or issuance, so that each such Common Share will have exactly one Right associated with it.


- 16 -
To the extent that any such exchange, conversion or acquisition rights are not exercised prior to the expiration thereof, the Exercise Price shall be readjusted to the Exercise Price which would be in effect, based on the number of Common Shares actually issued on the exercise of such rights.
In the event the Company at any time after the Record Time and prior to the Separation Time issues any Common Shares (or other securities exchangeable for or convertible into or giving a right to acquire Common Shares), each such Common Share shall automatically have one new Right associated with it, which Right shall be evidenced by the certificate representing such associated Common Share.
(b)If, after the Separation Time and prior to the Expiration Time, the Company shall issue any equity securities other than Common Shares (or other securities exchangeable for or convertible into or giving a right to acquire shares of any such capital stock) in a transaction of a type described in Clause 2.3(a)(i) or (iv), the shares of such capital stock shall be treated herein as nearly equivalent to Common Shares to the extent practicable and appropriate under the circumstances, as determined by the Board of Directors, and the shares purchasable upon exercise of Rights shall be adjusted as necessary such that the shares purchasable upon exercise of each Right after such adjustment will be the shares that a holder of the shares purchasable upon exercise of one Right immediately prior to such issuance would hold thereafter as a result of such issuance. Notwithstanding Section 5.5, the Company and the Rights Agent are authorized and agree to amend this Agreement in order to give effect to the foregoing.
(c)In the event that at any time after the Record Time and prior to the Expiration Time there shall occur:
(i)a reclassification or redesignation of the Common Shares or any change of the Common Shares into other shares (other than as the result of an event described in Subsection 2.3(a));
(ii)a consolidation, merger or amalgamation of the Company with or into another body corporate (other than a consolidation, merger or amalgamation which does not result in a reclassification of the Common Shares or a change of the Common Shares into other shares); or
(iii)the transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to another body corporate;
a holder of a Right shall thereafter be entitled to receive and shall accept upon exercise of such Right, in lieu of the number of Common Shares to which such holder was theretofore entitled to acquire upon such exercise, the kind and amount of shares and/or other securities or property which such holder would have been entitled to receive as a result of such occurrence if, on the effective date thereof, such holder had been the holder of the number of Common Shares to which such holder was then entitled upon exercise of such Right. The Company shall take all necessary steps so that holders of Rights shall thereafter be entitled to acquire such shares and/or other securities or property, subject to adjustment thereafter in accordance with provisions the same, as nearly as may be possible, as those contained in this Section 2.3.
(d)Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no adjustment in the Exercise Price shall be required unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least 1% in the Exercise Price; provided, however, that any adjustments which by reason of this Subsection 2.3(d) are not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment. All calculations under this Section 2.3 shall be made to the nearest cent or to the nearest ten-thousandth of a share. Notwithstanding the first sentence of this Subsection 2.3(d), any adjustment required by this Section 2.3 shall be made no later than the earlier of:
(i)three years from the date of the transaction which gives rise to such adjustment; and
(ii)the Expiration Time.


- 17 -
(e)irrespective of any adjustment or change in the Exercise Price or the number of Common Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Rights, the Rights Certificates theretofore and thereafter issued may continue to express the Exercise Price per Common Share and the number of Common Shares which were expressed in the initial Rights Certificates issued hereunder.
(f)In any case in which this Section 2.3 shall require that an adjustment in the Exercise Price be made effective as of a record date for a specified event, the Company may elect to defer until the occurrence of such event the issuance to the holder of any Right exercised after such record date the number of Common Shares and other securities of the Company, if any, issuable upon such exercise over and above the number of Common Shares and other securities of the Company, if any, issuable upon such exercise on the basis of the Exercise Price in effect prior to such adjustment; provided, however, that the Company shall deliver to such holder an appropriate instrument evidencing such holder’s right to receive such additional shares (fractional or otherwise) or other securities upon the occurrence of the event requiring such adjustment.
(g)Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 2.3 to the contrary, the Company shall be entitled to make such reductions in the Exercise Price, in addition to those adjustments expressly required by this Section 2.3, as and to the extent that in their good faith judgment the Board of Directors shall determine to be advisable, in order that any:
(i)consolidation or subdivision of Common Shares;
(ii)issuance (wholly or in part for cash) of Common Shares or securities that by their terms are convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares;
(iii)stock distributions; or
(iv)issuance of rights, options or warrants, hereafter made by the Company to holders of its Common Shares,
shall not be taxable to such shareholders.
(h)Whenever an adjustment to the Exercise Price or a change in the securities purchasable upon exercise of the Rights is made pursuant to this Section 2.3, the Company shall promptly and in any event, where such change or adjustment occurs prior to the Separation Time, not later than the Separation Time:
(i)file with the Rights Agent and with each transfer agent for the Common Shares a certificate specifying the particulars of such adjustment or change; and
(ii)cause notice of the particulars of such adjustment or change to be given to the holders of the Rights.
Failure to file such certificate or to cause such notice to be given as aforesaid, or any defect therein, shall not affect the validity of such adjustment or change.
(i)The Company covenants and agrees that, after the Separation Time, it will not, except as permitted by the provisions hereof, take (or permit any Subsidiary of the Company to take) any action if at the time such action is taken it is reasonably foreseeable that such action will diminish substantially or otherwise eliminate the benefits intended to be afforded by the Rights.
1.4Date on Which Exercise Is Effective
Each Person in whose name any certificate for Common Shares or other securities, if applicable, is issued upon the exercise of Rights shall for all purposes be deemed to have become the holder of record of the Common Shares or other securities, if applicable, represented thereon, and such certificate shall be dated the date upon which the Rights Certificate evidencing such Rights was duly surrendered in accordance with Subsection 2.2(d) (together with a duly completed Election to Exercise) and payment of the Exercise Price for such Rights (and any applicable transfer taxes and other governmental charges payable by the exercising holder hereunder) was made; provided, however, that if the date of such


- 18 -
surrender and payment is a date upon which the Common Share transfer books of the Company are closed, such Person shall be deemed to have become the record holder of such shares on, and such certificate shall be dated, the next succeeding Business Day on which the Common Share transfer books of the Company are open.
1.5Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating of Rights Certificates
(a)The Rights Certificates shall be executed on behalf of the Company by its Chairman, President, Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer under the corporate seal of the Company reproduced thereon. The signature of any of these officers on the Rights Certificates may be manual or facsimile. Rights Certificates bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were at any time the proper officers of the Company shall bind the Company, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices either before or after the countersignature and delivery of such Rights Certificates.
(b)Promptly after the Company learns of the Separation Time, the Company will notify the Rights Agent of such Separation Time and will deliver Rights Certificates executed by the Company to the Rights Agent for countersignature, and the Rights Agent shall manually countersign (in a manner satisfactory to the Company) and send such Rights Certificates to the holders of the Rights pursuant to Subsection 2.2(c) hereof. No Rights Certificate shall be valid for any purpose until countersigned by the Rights Agent as aforesaid.
(c)Each Rights Certificate shall be dated the date of countersignature thereof.
1.6Registration, Transfer and Exchange
(a)After the Separation Time, the Company will cause to be kept a register (the “Rights Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company will provide for the registration and transfer of Rights. The Rights Agent is hereby appointed registrar for the Rights (the “Rights Registrar”) for the purpose of maintaining the Rights Register for the Company and registering Rights and transfers of Rights as herein provided and the Rights Agent hereby accepts such appointment. In the event that the Rights Agent shall cease to be the Rights Registrar, the Rights Agent will have the right to examine the Rights Register at all reasonable times.
After the Separation Time and prior to the Expiration Time, upon surrender for registration of transfer or exchange of any Rights Certificate, and subject to the provisions of Subsection 2.6(c), the Company shall execute, and the Rights Agent shall countersign and deliver, in the name of the holder or the designated transferee or transferees, as required pursuant to the holder’s instructions, one or more new Rights Certificates evidencing the same aggregate number of Rights as did the Rights Certificates so surrendered.
(b)All Rights issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Rights Certificates shall be the valid obligations of the Company, and such Rights shall be entitled to the same benefits under this Agreement as the Rights surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.
(c)Every Rights Certificate surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Rights Agent duly executed by the holder thereof or such holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing. As a condition to the issuance of any new Rights Certificate under this Section 2.6, the Company or the Rights Agent may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of the Rights Agent) connected therewith.
1.7Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Rights Certificates
(a)If any mutilated Rights Certificate is surrendered to the Rights Agent prior to the Expiration Time, the Company shall execute and the Rights Agent shall countersign and


- 19 -
deliver in exchange therefor a new Rights Certificate evidencing the same number of Rights as did the Rights Certificate so surrendered.
(b)If there shall be delivered to the Company and the Rights Agent prior to the Expiration Time:
(i)evidence to their reasonable satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Rights Certificate; and
(ii)such security or indemnity as may be reasonably required by each of them in their sole discretion to save each of them and any of their agents harmless;
then, in the absence of notice to the Company or the Rights Agent that such Rights Certificate has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Company shall execute and upon the Company’s request the Rights Agent shall countersign and deliver, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Rights Certificate, a new Rights Certificate evidencing the same number of Rights as did the Rights Certificate so destroyed, lost or stolen.
(c)As a condition to the issuance of any new Rights Certificate under this Section 2.7, the Company or the Rights Agent may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of the Rights Agent) connected therewith.
(d)Every new Rights Certificate issued pursuant to this Section 2.7 in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Rights Certificate shall evidence an original additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Rights Certificate shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Agreement equally and proportionately with any and all other Rights, duly issued hereunder.
1.8Persons Deemed Owners of Rights
The Company, the Rights Agent and any agent of the Company or the Rights Agent may deem and treat the Person, in whose name a Rights Certificate (or, prior to the Separation Time, the associated Common Share certificate) is registered as the absolute owner thereof and of the Rights evidenced thereby for all purposes whatsoever. In this Agreement, unless the context otherwise requires, the term “holder” of any Right means the registered holder of such Right (or, prior to the Separation Time, the associated Common Share).
1.9Delivery and Cancellation of Certificates
All Rights Certificates surrendered upon exercise or for redemption, registration of transfer or exchange shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Rights Agent, be delivered to the Rights Agent and, in any case, shall be promptly cancelled by the Rights Agent. The Company may at any time deliver to the Rights Agent for cancellation any Rights Certificates previously countersigned and delivered hereunder which the Company may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and all Rights Certificates so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Rights Agent. No Rights Certificate shall be countersigned in lieu of or in exchange for any Rights Certificates cancelled as provided in this Section 2.9, except as expressly permitted by this Agreement. The Rights Agent shall, subject to applicable laws, destroy all cancelled Rights Certificates and deliver a certificate of destruction to the Company on request.
1.10Agreement of Rights Holders
Every holder of Rights, by accepting the same, consents and agrees with the Company and the Rights Agent and with every other holder of Rights that:
(a)such holder of Rights shall be bound by and subject to the provisions of this Agreement, as amended from time to time in accordance with the terms hereof, in respect of all Rights held;
(b)prior to the Separation Time, each Right will be transferable only together with, and will be transferred by a transfer of, the associated Common Share certificate representing such Right;


- 20 -
(c)after the Separation Time, the Rights Certificates will be transferable only on the Rights Register as provided herein;
(d)prior to due presentment of a Rights Certificate (or, prior to the Separation Time, the associated Common Share certificate) for registration of transfer, the Company, the Rights Agent and any agent of the Company or the Rights Agent may deem and treat the Person in whose name the Rights Certificate (or, prior to the Separation Time, the associated Common Share certificate) is registered as the absolute owner thereof and of the Rights evidenced thereby (notwithstanding any notations of ownership or writing on such Rights Certificate or the associated Common Share certificate made by anyone other than the Company or the Rights Agent) for all purposes whatsoever, and neither the Company nor the Rights Agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary;
(e)such holder of Rights has waived his right to receive any fractional Rights or any fractional shares or other securities upon exercise of a Right (except as provided herein); and
(f)notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, neither the Company nor the Rights Agent shall have any liability to any holder of a Right or any other Person as a result of its inability to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement by reason of any preliminary or permanent injunction or other order, decree or ruling issued by a court of competent jurisdiction or by a governmental, regulatory or administrative agency or commission, or any statute, rule, regulation or executive order promulgated or enacted by any governmental authority, prohibiting or otherwise restraining performance of such obligation.
(g)subject to the provisions of Section 5.5, without the approval of any holder of Rights or Voting Securities and upon the sole authority of the Board of Directors, acting in good faith, this Agreement may be supplemented or amended from time to time pursuant to and as provided herein.
1.11Rights Certificate Holder Not Deemed a Shareholder
No holder, as such, of any Rights or Rights Certificate shall be entitled to vote, receive distributions or be deemed for any purpose whatsoever the holder of any Common Share or any other share or security of the Company which may at any time be issuable on the exercise of the Rights represented thereby, nor shall anything contained herein or in any Rights Certificate be construed or deemed or confer upon the holder of any Right or Rights Certificate, as such, any right, title, benefit or privilege of a holder of Common Shares or any other shares or securities of the Company or any right to vote at any meeting of shareholders of the Company whether for the election of directors or otherwise or upon any matter submitted to holders of Common Shares or any other shares of the Company at any meeting thereof, or to give or withhold consent to any action of the Company, or to receive notice of any meeting or other action affecting any holder of Common Shares or any other shares of the Company except as expressly provided herein, or to receive distributions, distributions or subscription rights, or otherwise, until the Right or Rights evidenced by Rights Certificates shall have been duly exercised in accordance with the terms and provisions hereof.
Article 3 - ADJUSTMENTS TO THE RIGHTS IN THE EVENT OF CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS
1.1Flip-in Event
(a)Subject to Subsection 3.1(b) and Sections 5.1 and 5.2, in the event that prior to the Expiration Time a Flip-in Event shall occur, the Company shall take such action as shall be necessary to ensure and provide, within 10 Business Days thereafter or such longer period as may be required to satisfy the requirements of the applicable securities laws or comparable legislation so that, except as provided below, each Right shall thereafter constitute the right to purchase from the Company, upon exercise thereof in accordance with the terms hereof, that number of Common Shares having an aggregate Market Price on the date of consummation or occurrence of such Flip-in Event equal to twice the Exercise Price for an amount in cash equal to the Exercise Price (such right to be appropriately adjusted in a manner analogous to the applicable adjustment provided for in Section 2.3 in the event that after such occurrence, an event of a type analogous to any of the events described in Section 2.3 shall have occurred).


- 21 -
(b)Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, upon the occurrence of any Flip-in Event, any Rights that are or were Beneficially Owned on or after the earlier of the Separation Time or the Stock Acquisition Date by:
(i)an Acquiring Person (or any Affiliate or Associate of an Acquiring Person or any Person acting jointly or in concert with an Acquiring Person or any Affiliate or Associate of such Person acting jointly or in concert with an Acquiring Person); or
(ii)a transferee of Rights, directly or indirectly, from an Acquiring Person (or any Affiliate or Associate of an Acquiring Person or any Person acting jointly or in concert with an Acquiring Person or any Affiliate or Associate of an Acquiring Person), where such transferee becomes a transferee concurrently with or subsequent to the Acquiring Person becoming such in a transfer that the Board of Directors has determined is part of a plan, understanding or scheme of an Acquiring Person (or any Affiliate or Associate of an Acquiring Person or any Person acting jointly or in concert with an Acquiring Person or any Affiliate or Associate of such Person acting jointly or in concert with an Acquiring Person), that has the purpose or effect of avoiding this Clause 3.1(b),
shall become null and void without any further action, and any holder of such Rights (including transferees) shall thereafter have no right to exercise such Rights under any provision of this Agreement and further shall thereafter not have any other rights whatsoever with respect to such Rights, whether under any provision of this Agreement or otherwise.
(c)Any Rights Certificate that represents Rights Beneficially Owned by a Person described in either Clause 3.1(b)(i) or (ii) or transferred to any nominee of any such Person, and any Rights Certificate issued upon the transfer, exchange, replacement or adjustment of any other Rights Certificate referred to in this sentence, shall contain the following legend:
“The Rights represented by this Rights Certificate were issued to a Person who was an Acquiring Person or an Affiliate or an Associate of an Acquiring Person or a Person who was acting jointly or in concert with an Acquiring Person or an Affiliate or Associate of an Acquiring Person (as such terms are defined in the Shareholder Rights Plan Agreement). This Rights Certificate and the Rights represented hereby are void or shall become void in the circumstances specified in Subsection 3.1(b) of the Shareholder Rights Plan Agreement.”
provided, however, that the Rights Agent shall not be under any responsibility to ascertain the existence of facts that would require the imposition of such legend but shall impose such legend only if instructed to do so by the Company in writing or if a holder fails to certify upon transfer or exchange in the space provided on the Rights Certificate that such holder is not a Person described in such legend.
Article 4 - THE RIGHTS AGENT
1.1General
(a)The Company hereby appoints the Rights Agent to act as agent for the Company and the holders of the Rights in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof, and the Rights Agent hereby accepts such appointment. The Company may from time to time appoint such co-Rights Agents (the “Co-Rights Agents”) as it may deem necessary or desirable subject to the approval of the Rights Agent. In the event the Company appoints one or more Co-Rights Agents, the respective duties of the Rights Agent and Co-Rights Agents shall be as the Company may determine. The Company agrees to pay to the Rights Agent reasonable compensation for all services rendered by it hereunder and, from time to time, on demand of the Rights Agent, its reasonable expenses and counsel fees and other disbursements reasonably incurred in the execution and administration of this Agreement and the exercise and performance of its duties hereunder, with the prior approval of the Company. The Company also agrees to indemnify the Rights Agent and its directors, officers, employees and agents for, and to hold them harmless against, any loss, liability, or expense, incurred without gross negligence, bad faith or wilful misconduct


- 22 -
on the part of the Rights Agent, for anything done or omitted by the Rights Agent in connection with the acceptance and administration of this Agreement, including the costs and expenses of defending against any claim of liability, which right to indemnification will survive the termination of this Agreement.
(b)The Rights Agent shall be protected and shall incur no liability for or in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it in connection with its administration of this Agreement in reliance upon any certificate for Common Shares, Rights Certificate, certificate for other securities of the Company, instrument of assignment or transfer, power of attorney, endorsement, affidavit, letter, notice, direction, consent, certificate, statement, or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to be signed, executed and, where necessary, verified or acknowledged, by the proper Person or Persons.
(c)The Company shall inform the Rights Agent in a reasonably timely manner of events which may materially affect the administration of this Agreement by the Rights Agent and, at any time upon request shall provide to the Rights Agent an incumbency certificate certifying the then current officers of the Company.
1.2Merger, Amalgamation or Consolidation or Change of Name of Rights Agent
(a)Any corporation into which the Rights Agent may be merged or amalgamated or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, amalgamation, statutory arrangement or consolidation to which the Rights Agent or any successor Rights Agent is a party, or any corporation succeeding to the shareholder services business of the Rights Agent or any successor Rights Agent, will be the successor to the Rights Agent under this Agreement without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, provided that such corporation would be eligible for appointment as a successor Rights Agent under the provisions of Section 4.4 hereof. In case, at the time such successor Rights Agent succeeds to the agency created by this Agreement, any of the Rights Certificates have been countersigned but not delivered, any such successor Rights Agent may adopt the countersignature of the predecessor Rights Agent and deliver such Rights Certificates so countersigned; and in case at that time any of the Rights Certificates have not been countersigned, any successor Rights Agent may countersign such Rights Certificates in the name of the predecessor Rights Agent or in the name of the successor Rights Agent; and in all such cases such Rights Certificates will have the full force provided in the Rights Certificates and in this Agreement.
(b)In case at any time the name of the Rights Agent is changed and at such time any of the Rights Certificates shall have been countersigned but not delivered, the Rights Agent may adopt the countersignature under its prior name and deliver Rights Certificates so countersigned; and in case at that time any of the Rights Certificates shall not have been countersigned, the Rights Agent may countersign such Rights Certificates either in its prior name or in its changed name; and in all such cases such Rights Certificates shall have the full force provided in the Rights Certificates and in this Agreement.
1.3Duties of Rights Agent
The Rights Agent undertakes the duties and obligations imposed by this Agreement upon the following terms and conditions, all of which the Company and the holders of certificates for Common Shares and the holders of Rights Certificates, by their acceptance thereof, shall be bound:
(a)the Rights Agent may at the Company’s expense retain and consult with legal counsel (who may be legal counsel for the Company) and the opinion of such counsel will be full and complete authorization and protection to the Rights Agent as to any action taken or omitted by it in good faith and in accordance with such opinion; the Rights Agent may also, with the prior approval of the Company, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, consult with such other experts as the Rights Agent shall consider necessary or appropriate to properly carry out the duties and obligations imposed under this Agreement and the Rights Agent shall be entitled to act and rely in good faith on the advice of any such expert or advisor;


- 23 -
(b)whenever in the performance of its duties under this Agreement, the Rights Agent deems it necessary or desirable that any fact or matter be proved or established by the Company prior to taking or suffering any action hereunder, such fact or matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed) may be deemed to be conclusively proved and established by a certificate signed by a Person believed by the Rights Agent to be the Chairman, President, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer or any other authorized signing officer of the Company and delivered to the Rights Agent; and such certificate will be full authorization to the Rights Agent for any action taken, omitted or suffered in good faith by it under the provisions of this Agreement in reliance upon such certificate;
(c)nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to relieve the Rights Agent of liability for its own gross negligence, bad faith or wilful misconduct;
(d)the Rights Agent will not be liable for or by reason of any of the statements of fact or recitals contained in this Agreement or in the certificates for Common Shares or the Rights Certificates (except its countersignature thereof) or be required to verify the same, but all such statements and recitals are and will be deemed to have been made by the Company only;
(e)the Rights Agent will not be under any responsibility in respect of the validity of this Agreement or the execution and delivery hereof (except the due authorization, execution and delivery hereof by the Rights Agent) or in respect of the validity or execution of any certificate for a Common Share or Rights Certificate (except its countersignature thereof); nor will it be responsible for any breach by the Company of any covenant or condition contained in this Agreement or in any Rights Certificate; nor will it be responsible for any change in the exercisability of the Rights (including the Rights becoming void pursuant to Subsection 3.1(b) hereof) or any adjustment required under the provisions of Section 2.3 hereof or responsible for the manner, method or amount of any such adjustment or the ascertaining of the existence of facts that would require any such adjustment (except with respect to the exercise of Rights after receipt of the certificate contemplated by Section 2.3 describing any such adjustment); nor will it by any act hereunder be deemed to make any representation or warranty as to the authorization of any Common Shares to be issued pursuant to this Agreement or any Rights or as to whether any Common Shares will, when issued, be duly and validly authorized, executed, issued and delivered and fully paid and non-assessable;
(f)the Company agrees that it will perform, execute, acknowledge and deliver or cause to be performed, executed, acknowledged and delivered all such further and other acts, instruments and assurances as may reasonably be required by the Rights Agent for the carrying out or performing by the Rights Agent of the provisions of this Agreement;
(g)the Rights Agent is hereby authorized and directed to accept instructions in writing with respect to the performance of its duties hereunder from any person believed by the Rights Agent to be the Chairman, President, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer or any other authorized signing officer of the Company, and to apply to such persons for advice or instructions in connection with its duties, and it shall not be liable for any action taken, omitted or suffered by it in good faith in accordance with instructions of any such person;
(h)the Rights Agent and any shareholder, director, officer or employee of the Rights Agent may buy, sell or deal in Common Shares, Rights or other securities of the Company or become pecuniarily interested in any transaction in which the Company may be interested, or contract with or lend money to the Company or otherwise act as fully and freely as though it were not Rights Agent under this Agreement;
(i)nothing herein shall preclude the Rights Agent from acting in any other capacity for the Company or for any other legal entity; and
(j)the Rights Agent may execute and exercise any of the rights or powers hereby vested in it or perform any duty hereunder either itself or by or through its attorneys or agents, and the Rights Agent will not be answerable or accountable for any act, default, neglect or misconduct of any such attorneys or agents or for any loss to the Company resulting from


- 24 -
any such act, default, neglect or misconduct, provided reasonable care was exercised in good faith in the selection and continued employment thereof.
1.4Change of Rights Agent
The Rights Agent may resign and be discharged from its duties under this Agreement upon 60 days’ notice (or such lesser notice as is acceptable to the Company) in writing mailed to the Company and to each transfer agent of Common Shares by registered or certified mail. The Company may remove the Rights Agent upon 60 days’ notice in writing, mailed to the Rights Agent and to each transfer agent of the Common Shares by registered or certified mail and to the holders of the Rights in accordance with Section 5.10. If the Rights Agent should resign or be removed or otherwise become incapable of acting, the Company will appoint a successor to the Rights Agent. If the Company fails to make such appointment within a period of 60 days after such removal or after it has been notified in writing of such resignation or incapacity by the resigning or incapacitated Rights Agent, then by prior written notice to the Company the resigning Rights Agent or the holder of any Rights (which holder shall, with such notice, submit such holder’s Rights Certificate, if any, for inspection by the Company), may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a new Rights Agent. Any successor Rights Agent, whether appointed by the Company or by such a court, shall be a corporation incorporated under the laws of Canada or a province thereof authorized to carry on the business of a trust company in the Province of Ontario. After appointment, the successor Rights Agent will be vested with the same powers, rights, duties and responsibilities as if it had been originally named as Rights Agent without further act or deed; but the predecessor Rights Agent upon receipt of any and all outstanding amounts owing by the Company to the Rights Agent pursuant to this Agreement, shall deliver and transfer to the successor Rights Agent any property at the time held by it hereunder, and execute and deliver any further assurance, conveyance, act or deed necessary for the purpose. Not later than the effective date of any such appointment, the Company will file notice thereof in writing with the predecessor Rights Agent and each transfer agent of the Common Shares and mail a notice thereof in writing to the holders of the Rights in accordance with Section 5.10. Failure to give any notice provided for in this Section 4.4, however, or any defect therein, shall not affect the legality or validity of the resignation or removal of the Rights Agent or the appointment of any successor Rights Agent, as the case may be.
1.5Compliance with Money Laundering Legislation
The Rights Agent shall retain the right not to act and shall not be liable for refusing to act if, due to a lack of information or for any other reason whatsoever, the Rights Agent reasonably determines that such an act might cause it to be in non-compliance with any applicable anti-money laundering or anti-terrorist legislation, regulation or guideline. Further, should the Rights Agent reasonably determine at any time that its acting under this Agreement has resulted in it being in non-compliance with any applicable anti-money laundering or anti-terrorist legislation, regulation or guideline, then it shall have the right to resign on 10 days’ written notice to the Company, provided: (i) that the Rights Agent’s written notice shall describe the circumstances of such non-compliance; and (ii) that if such circumstances are rectified to the Rights Agent’s satisfaction within such 10-day period, then such resignation shall not be effective.
1.6Privacy Provision
The parties acknowledge that federal and/or provincial legislation that addresses the protection of individual’s personal information (collectively, “Privacy Laws”) applies to obligations and activities under this Agreement. Despite any other provision of this Agreement, neither party will take or direct any action that would contravene, or cause the other to contravene, applicable Privacy Laws. The Company will, prior to transferring or causing to be transferred personal information to the Rights Agent, obtain and retain required consents of the relevant individuals to the collection, use and disclosure of their personal information, or will have determined that such consents either have previously been given upon which the parties can rely or are not required under the Privacy Laws. The Rights Agent will use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that its services hereunder comply with Privacy Laws.
Article 5 – MISCELLANEOUS
1.1Redemption of Rights
(a)Subject to the prior consent of the holders of Voting Securities or Rights obtained as set forth in Section 5.5(b), or 5.5(c), as applicable, the Board of Directors, acting in good faith, may at any time prior to the occurrence of a Flip-in Event, as to which the application of Section 3.1 has not been waived pursuant to Section 5.2, elect to redeem all but not less than all of the then outstanding Rights at a redemption price of $0.0001


- 25 -
per Right, appropriately adjusted in a manner analogous to the applicable adjustment provided for in Section 2.3, if an event of the type analogous to any of the events described in Section 2.3 shall have occurred (such redemption price being herein referred to as the “Redemption Price”).
(b)If a Person acquires, pursuant to a Permitted Bid or a Competing Permitted Bid or pursuant to an Exempt Acquisition occurring under Subsection 5.2(b) hereof, outstanding Voting Securities, the Board of Directors of the Company shall, immediately upon such acquisition and without further formality, be deemed to have elected to redeem the Rights at the Redemption Price.
(c)Where a Take-over Bid that is not a Permitted Bid or Competing Permitted Bid expires, is withdrawn or otherwise terminated after the Separation Time has occurred and prior to the occurrence of a Flip-in Event, the Board of Directors may elect to redeem all of the outstanding Rights at the Redemption Price.
(d)If the Board of Directors elects to or is deemed to have elected to redeem the Rights (i) the right to exercise the Rights will thereupon, without further action and without notice, terminate and the only right thereafter of the holders of Rights shall be to receive the Redemption Price, and (ii) subject to Subsection 5.1(f), no further Rights shall thereafter be issued.
(e)Within 10 Business Days of the Board of Directors electing or having been deemed to have elected to redeem the Rights, the Company shall give notice of redemption to the holders of the then outstanding Rights by mailing such notice to each such holder at his last address as it appears upon the Rights Register of the Rights Agent, or, prior to the Separation Time, on the share register maintained by the Company’s transfer agent or transfer agents. Each such notice of redemption shall state the method by which the payment of the Redemption Price shall be made.
(f)Upon the Rights being redeemed pursuant to Subsection 5.1(c), all the provisions of this Agreement shall continue to apply as if the Separation Time had not occurred and Rights Certificates representing the number of Rights held by each holder of record of Common Shares as of the Separation Time had not been mailed to each such holder and for all purposes of this Agreement, the Separation Time shall be deemed not to have occurred.
1.2Waiver of Flip-In Events
(a)Subject to the prior consent of the holders of Voting Securities or Rights obtained as set forth in Section 5.5(b), or 5.5(c), as applicable, the Board of Directors may, at any time prior to the occurrence of a Flip-in Event that would occur by reason of an acquisition of Voting Securities otherwise than pursuant to a Take-over Bid made by means of a take-over bid circular to all holders of Voting Securities or otherwise than in the circumstances set forth in Subsection 5.2(c), waive the application of Section 3.1 to such Flip-in Event by written notice delivered to the Rights Agent.
(b)The Board of Directors may, at any time prior to the occurrence of a Flip-in Event that would occur as a result of a Take-over Bid made by way of a take-over bid circular sent to all holders of Voting Securities, waive the application of Section 3.1 to such Flip-in Event by written notice delivered to the Rights Agent; provided, however, that if the Board of Directors waives the application of Section 3.1 to such a Flip-in Event, the Board of Directors shall be deemed to have waived the application of Section 3.1 to any other Flip-in Event occurring by reason of any Take-over Bid which is made by means of a take-over bid circular to all holders of Voting Securities prior to the expiry of any Take-over Bid in respect of which a waiver is, or is deemed to have been, granted under this Subsection 5.2(b).
(c)The Board of Directors may waive the application of Section 3.1 in respect of the occurrence of any Flip-in Event if the Board of Directors has determined that a Person became an Acquiring Person by inadvertence and without any intention to become, or knowledge that it would become, an Acquiring Person under this Agreement and, in the event that such a waiver is granted by the Board of Directors, such Stock Acquisition Date shall be deemed not to have occurred. Any such waiver pursuant to this Subsection 5.2(c) must be on the condition that such Person, within 14 days after the foregoing


- 26 -
determination by the Board of Directors or such earlier or later date as the Board of Directors may determine (the “Disposition Date”), has reduced its Beneficial Ownership of Voting Securities such that the Person is no longer an Acquiring Person. If the Person remains an Acquiring Person at the close of business on the Disposition Date, the Disposition Date shall be deemed to be the date of occurrence of a further Stock Acquisition Date and Section 3.1 shall apply thereto.
1.3Expiration
No Person shall have any rights whatsoever pursuant to this Agreement or in respect of any Right after the Expiration Time, except the Rights Agent as specified in Subsection 4.1(a) of this Agreement.
1.4Issuance of New Rights Certificates
Notwithstanding any of the provisions of this Agreement or of the Rights to the contrary, the Company may, at its option, issue new Rights Certificates evidencing Rights in such form as may be approved by the Board of Directors to reflect any adjustment or change in the number or kind or class of securities purchasable upon exercise of Rights made in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.
1.5Supplements and Amendments
(a)The Company may, at any time without the approval of shareholders of the Company or holders of Rights, make amendments to this Agreement to correct any clerical or typographical error or which are required to maintain the validity of this Agreement as a result of any change in any applicable legislation or regulations or rules thereunder. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 5.5 to the contrary, no such supplement or amendment shall be made to the provisions of Article 4 except with the written concurrence of the Rights Agent to such supplement or amendment.
(b)Subject to Subsection 5.5(a), the Company may, with the prior consent of the holders of Voting Securities obtained as set forth below, at any time prior to the Separation Time, supplement, amend, vary, rescind or delete any of the provisions of this Agreement and the Rights (whether or not such action would materially adversely affect the interests of the holders of Rights generally). Such consent shall be deemed to have been given if the action requiring such approval is authorized by the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast by Independent Shareholders present or represented at and entitled to be voted at a meeting of the holders of Voting Securities duly called and held in compliance with applicable laws and the articles of the Company.
(c)The Company may, with the prior consent of the holders of Rights, at any time on or after the Separation Time, supplement, amend, vary, rescind or delete any of the provisions of this Agreement and the Rights (whether or not such action would materially adversely affect the interests of the holders of Rights generally), provided that no such amendment, variation or deletion shall be made to the provisions of Article 4 except with the written concurrence of the Rights Agent thereto. Such consent shall be deemed to have been given if such amendment, variation or deletion is authorized by the affirmative votes of the holders of Rights present or represented at and entitled to be voted at a meeting of the holders and representing 50% plus one of the votes cast in respect thereof.
(d)Any approval of the holders of Rights shall be deemed to have been given if the action requiring such approval is authorized by the affirmative votes of the holders of Rights present or represented at and entitled to be voted at a meeting of the holders of Rights and representing a majority of the votes cast in respect thereof. For the purposes hereof, each outstanding Right (other than Rights which are void pursuant to the provisions hereof) shall be entitled to one vote, and the procedures for the calling, holding and conduct of the meeting shall be those, as nearly as may be, which are provided in the Company’s articles of incorporation and by-laws with respect to meetings of shareholders of the Company.
(e)Any amendments made by the Company to this Agreement pursuant to Subsection 5.5(a) which are required to maintain the validity of this Agreement as a result of any change in any applicable legislation or regulation thereunder shall:


- 27 -
(i)if made before the Separation Time, be submitted to the holders of Voting Securities of the Company at the next meeting of holders of Voting Securities and the holders of Voting Securities may, by the majority referred to in Subsection 5.5(b), confirm or reject such amendment; and
(ii)if made after the Separation Time, be submitted to the holders of Rights at a meeting to be called for on a date not later than immediately following the next meeting of shareholders of the Company and the holders of Rights may, by resolution passed by the majority referred to in Subsection 5.5(d), confirm or reject such amendment.
Any such amendment shall, unless the Board of Directors otherwise stipulates, be effective from the date of the resolution of the Board of Directors adopting such amendment, until it is confirmed or rejected or until it ceases to be effective (as described in the next sentence) and, where such amendment is confirmed, it continues in effect in the form so confirmed. If such amendment is rejected by the shareholders or the holders of Rights or is not submitted to the shareholders or holders of Rights as required, then such amendment shall cease to be effective from and after the termination of the meeting at which it was rejected or to which it should have been but was not submitted or from and after the date of the meeting of holders of Rights that should have been but was not held, and no subsequent resolution of the Board of Directors to amend this Agreement to substantially the same effect shall be effective until confirmed by the shareholders or holders of Rights, as the case may be.
1.6Fractional Rights and Fractional Shares
(a)The Company shall not be required to issue fractions of Rights or to distribute Rights Certificates which evidence fractional Rights. After the Separation Time, in lieu of issuing fractional Rights, the Company shall pay to the holders of record of the Rights Certificates (provided the Rights represented by such Rights Certificates are not void pursuant to the provisions of Subsection 3.1(b), at the time such fractional Rights would otherwise be issuable), an amount in cash equal to the fraction of the Market Price of one whole Right that the fraction of a Right that would otherwise be issuable is of one whole Right.
(b)The Company shall not be required to issue fractions of Common Shares upon exercise of Rights or to distribute certificates which evidence fractional Common Shares. In lieu of issuing fractional Common Shares, the Company shall pay to the registered holders of Rights Certificates, at the time such Rights are exercised as herein provided, an amount in cash equal to the fraction of the Market Price of one Common Share that the fraction of a Common Share that would otherwise be issuable upon the exercise of such Right is of one whole Common Share at the date of such exercise.
1.7Rights of Action
Subject to the terms of this Agreement, all rights of action in respect of this Agreement, other than rights of action vested solely in the Rights Agent, are vested in the respective holders of the Rights. Any holder of Rights, without the consent of the Rights Agent or of the holder of any other Rights, may, on such holder’s own behalf and for such holder’s own benefit and the benefit of other holders of Rights, enforce, and may institute and maintain any suit, action or proceeding against the Company to enforce such holder’s right to exercise such holder’s Rights, or Rights to which such holder is entitled, in the manner provided in such holder’s Rights and in this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing or any remedies available to the holders of Rights, it is specifically acknowledged that the holders of Rights would not have an adequate remedy at law for any breach of this Agreement and will be entitled to specific performance of the obligations under, and injunctive relief against actual or threatened violations of the obligations of any Person subject to, this Agreement.
1.8Regulatory Approvals
Any obligation of the Company or action or event contemplated by this Agreement shall be subject to the receipt of any requisite approval or consent from any governmental or regulatory authority. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any issuance of or delivery of equity securities of the Company upon the exercise of Rights and any amendment or supplement to this Agreement shall be subject to the prior necessary approvals of the Toronto Stock Exchange and any other exchange upon which the


- 28 -
Common Shares may be listed to the extent required by the rules of the Toronto Stock Exchange or other exchange at the relevant time.
1.9Declaration as to Non-Canadian Holders
If in the opinion of the Board of Directors (who may rely upon the advice of counsel) any action or event contemplated by this Agreement would require compliance by the Company with the securities laws or comparable legislation of a jurisdiction outside Canada, the Board of Directors acting in good faith shall take such actions as it may deem appropriate to ensure such compliance. In no event shall the Company or the Rights Agent be required to issue or deliver Rights or securities issuable on exercise of Rights to Persons who are citizens, residents or nationals of any jurisdiction other than Canada, in which such issue or delivery would be unlawful without registration of the relevant Persons or securities for such purposes. If it would be necessary in any jurisdiction other than Canada to register any of the Rights or securities issuable on exercise of Rights prior to such issue or delivery, the Company will use its best efforts to establish procedures whereby shareholders entitled to such Rights, or holders of Rights entitled to securities upon the exercise of Rights, will have the ability to trade or exercise such Rights, or be issued such securities, without the need to register those securities in the jurisdiction in which they reside, through the establishment of a trustee to hold and sell such securities in Canada, or such other mechanism as the Board of Directors believes is appropriate.
